What to check in Newquay before ordering
In Newquay, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Planning: Rear shutters are less visible, but listed buildings and conservation areas can still need consent.
- 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.
- Escape route: If the patio doors are a way out of the house, the shutter needs an inside control and a manual override.

Patio & bifold door roller shutters in Newquay: questions
Will a shutter keep my extension cooler?
Yes, an external shutter stops sun reaching the glass, which is far more effective at reducing heat than an internal blind.
Can you fit a shutter over bifold doors?
Yes. The shutter runs outside the folding doors in its own guides, so it does not interfere with them. Very wide bifolds are often split into two shutters on a centre post.
Do I need permission for patio & bifold door roller shutters in Newquay?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in Newquay?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Newquay are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
