What can you expect in St Helens?
St Helens sits in Merseyside, and St Helens Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What is worth knowing?
How does a joint install save trading time?
The frontage and shutter go in as one sequence, so you close once. With two contractors, you close twice and hope they agree on who damaged what.
Why plan the frontage and shutter together?
Because the shutter box needs a home. Plan it with the fascia and it disappears. Add it later and it usually ends up on the face of the building.
Is the box accessible for servicing?
It has to be. We build in a removable panel so that an engineer can reach the motor, brake and spring parts.

Do you need consent in St Helens?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from St Helens Council. An internal shutter or grille often does not, so it is worth checking before you order. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask about shopfront and shutter packages in St Helens?
Do you cover St Helens for both the shopfront and shutter?
Yes. One surveyor and one fitting team handle both parts in St Helens.
How long does a package take in St Helens?
For aluminium and steel frontages, usually 3 to 6 weeks from drawing sign-off. Other materials are confirmed on your quotation.
Who decides planning for a frontage in St Helens?
St Helens Council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.
Can the shutter box be hidden?
Usually, yes. When the frontage is new we can build the box in behind the fascia and leave an access panel for servicing. Head height above the door decides how much room there is.
