Planning and safety in South Croydon
In South Croydon, 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.
