Planning and safety in Manchester
Manchester is in England, so planning decisions sit with 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.

Frequently asked questions
Are roller grilles secure?
They form a strong barrier against entry, but small items could be reached through the gaps, so they suit displays rather than open counters of small goods.
Can a grille go inside the shop?
Yes. Internal grilles behind the glass are common where planning or the landlord prefers the shopfront unchanged.
Is the survey free in Manchester?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Manchester are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for roller grilles in Manchester?
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.
