How does it work in Chigwell?
Our surveys in Chigwell cover postcodes including IG7, along with Woodford and Loughton. Planning applications here go to Epping Forest District Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you check before you decide?
Does a shutter need planning permission?
An external shutter usually does. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. An internal grille or shutter is usually the safer route, so we can advise what to check before you order.
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.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
