What happens across Suffolk?
We work right across Suffolk, including Ipswich, Lowestoft, Bury St Edmunds and Haverhill. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Councils here include Ipswich, West Suffolk and East Suffolk. Ipswich and Lowestoft carry the larger units, with old market towns such as Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury and Beccles.
What should you think about first?
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.
How long does a shutter last?
Curtains and guides can last many years with planned servicing. Motors, springs and locks go first, and a busy shop will wear them faster.
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.

Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so your 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.
