What to check in Ilford before ordering
In Ilford, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Centre rules: Shopping centres often specify finishes and operation; we work to the landlord's fit-out pack.
- Weather: Grilles do not keep out rain or wind, so they suit internal positions or sheltered openings.

Do I need permission for roller grilles in Ilford?
