What happens in Portishead?
Portishead sits in Somerset, and North Somerset Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.

What makes the difference?
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 about a fire exit?
A shutter must never trap people in. If it covers an escape route, it needs to be open while the premises are occupied, or opened easily from inside.
Do I need a safety edge?
That depends on the risk assessment. Powered shutters near the public are assessed against BS EN 12453, and we quote what the result calls for.
Will this need planning permission in Portishead?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so North Somerset Council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

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 in Portishead?
An external shutter usually needs it, and North Somerset Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
Are clear inserts worth having?
Usually, on exposed streets. They keep out litter and weather, but scratch over time.
