What should you think about first?
Surface box or hidden box?
A surface box under the fascia is quicker and cheaper. A hidden box looks far better, but needs height above the door head and a removable access panel.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
What will my insurer want?
Some insurers name a shutter type or rating, and many ask for locks and service records. Ask them before you order, as it saves a change later.
Do you need consent across Lincolnshire?
Probably, if it is external. Your council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

Can you match the shutter to my shopfront?
Yes. We powder coat to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as we can.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter across Lincolnshire?
An external shutter usually needs it, and your council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
How much does a shutter added to an existing shopfront cost across Lincolnshire?
For an opening up to 3 m wide, guide prices start from £1,450 plus VAT. The survey sets the final price.
Do I need electrics near the shutter?
A power supply is needed near the box, fitted by a qualified electrician. We confirm the position at survey and show the cost as its own line on the quotation.
