Rules that apply in Farnborough
In Farnborough, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Getting out safely: A shutter over an exit door must open from inside quickly and without a key. We set the switch inside the door and add a manual override.
- Planning: Front-door shutters change how the house looks from the street, so check with your council first, especially in a conservation area or on a listed building.
- Electrics: Wired to BS 7671. Notifiable work in homes in England and Wales, such as a new circuit, is self-certified by a competent person scheme electrician or notified to building control.

Door roller shutters in Farnborough: questions
Will it fit round my door handle?
The shutter runs in front of the door frame, so handles, letterboxes and door canopies are measured at survey and the guides are set out to clear them.
Can it be opened from outside?
With a key switch, keypad or remote, yes. Without one, it can only be opened from inside, which suits back doors.
Is the survey free in Farnborough?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Farnborough are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do you cover Farnborough?
Yes. Farnborough and the GU14 postcode district are part of our coverage across Hampshire.
