Planning and safety in Lincoln
Lincoln is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- 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.
- 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.

Questions about door roller shutters in Lincoln
How much does a door roller shutter cost?
A single door is usually £795–£1,195 including VAT, electric, supplied and fitted. Wider openings and doors with side lights cost more.
Can I get out if the door shutter is down?
Yes. The control is inside, and we fit a manual override so the shutter can be raised by hand if the power is off. We will not fit a shutter over your only exit that needs a key from inside.
Is the survey free in Lincoln?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Lincoln are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for door roller shutters in Lincoln?
It depends on the property. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
