Planning and safety in Greenwich
In Greenwich, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Planning: The planning advice for shutters applies whether manual or electric.
- Effort: Large manual shutters take time and effort to open; if staff open it every day, electric is usually better value over time.

Frequently asked questions
Can a manual shutter be motorised later?
In most cases yes, by fitting a motor inside the barrel or a gear motor on the side.
Why is my push-up shutter heavy?
The springs that balance the curtain lose tension over time. Re-tensioning or replacing them usually fixes it.
Do you cover Greenwich?
Yes. Greenwich and the SE10 postcode district are part of our coverage across Greater London.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Greenwich?
New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
