Planning questions anywhere in Kent go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Escape route: If the patio doors are a way out of the house, the shutter needs an inside control and a manual override.
- 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.

Patio & bifold door roller shutters in Kent: questions
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.
Can the headbox be hidden?
On new extensions it can be built into the roof edge or behind a fascia. On existing houses it is fitted neatly under the lintel and colour-matched.
Do I need permission for patio & bifold door roller shutters in Kent?
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.
Is the survey free in Kent?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
