How does it work in Washington?
A frontage in Washington has to suit the street as well as the shop. Sunderland City Council decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.

What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
Will this need planning permission in Washington?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Sunderland City 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 vision roller shutters in Washington?
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Washington?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Sunderland City Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
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.
How soon can you fit a vision roller shutter in Washington?
Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks after survey. We agree the fitting day with you.
Vision or perforated: which shows more?
Vision shows more, as the slots are bigger. Perforated gives a softer view and a more solid look.
