Rules that apply in Ilkeston
Ilkeston is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Fire strategy: If a shutter is on an escape route, it must fit the building's fire strategy and must not lock people in.
- Planning: New external shutters can need planning permission, particularly on street-facing elevations.
- Workplace safety: Powered doors in workplaces must be safe in use and properly maintained. We commission the safety devices and recommend a service interval.

Commercial roller shutters in Ilkeston: questions
Can shutters be linked to our access control?
Yes, most commercial controls accept an input from access control, timers or alarm systems.
What duty motor do I need?
It depends on how often the shutter opens. We ask about daily cycles at survey and size the motor and curtain so it is not overworked.
Is the survey free in Ilkeston?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Ilkeston are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for commercial roller shutters in Ilkeston?
Possibly. New external shutters on street-facing elevations usually need planning permission; internal counter shutters usually do not. We recommend checking with your local council first.
