Rules that apply in Uppingham
In Uppingham, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to 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.

Frequently asked 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.
Do I need permission for commercial roller shutters in Uppingham?
It depends on the property. New external shutters on street-facing elevations usually need planning permission; internal counter shutters usually do not. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
Is the survey free in Uppingham?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Uppingham are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
