Covering Aberystwyth
Aberystwyth is part of our Dyfed coverage, and addresses in the SY23 postcode district are covered in the same way as the rest of Dyfed.
Llandrindod Wells, Newtown and Cardigan are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.
Aberystwyth is roughly 36 miles north of Carmarthen.
You do not have to do every window at once: in Aberystwyth we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
Manual push-up and crank shutters still suit small frontages in Aberystwyth where there is no power at the box or the shutter only runs once a day.
Planning and safety in Aberystwyth
Planning in Aberystwyth follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Welsh permitted development rules. Shopfront shutters usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council, under the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023.
Electrical work for powered shutters is carried out to BS 7671, with notifiable work in homes (under Part P in Wales, whose list of notifiable work differs slightly from England's) self-certified by a competent person scheme electrician or notified to building control.
Fire shutters in workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats, are maintained under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, where the responsible person is responsible for keeping fire safety measures in working order. Fire shutters that form part of building work also need approval from local authority building control.
