What can you expect in Watford?
Our surveys in Watford cover postcodes including WD17, WD18 and WD24, along with Bushey and Rickmansworth. Planning applications here go to Watford Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What is worth knowing?
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
Can the shutter match my frontage?
Yes. Curtain, box and guides are powder coated to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as the finish allows.
