What happens in Whitechapel?
Whether the unit is on the main shopping street or a local parade in Whitechapel, the job is measured the same way, and London Borough of Tower Hamlets is the council to check with.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
How much will it cost?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |

Do you need consent in Whitechapel?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from London Borough of Tower Hamlets. 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.
