Rules that apply in Kent

Kent is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).

  • Safety first: Do not keep forcing a shutter that has jammed or dropped; a sprung or heavy curtain can move suddenly. Keep people clear and call us.
  • Fire shutters: Faults on fire shutters affect the building's fire safety; tell the person responsible for fire safety and arrange repair promptly.

How it works

  1. Describe the problem

    What the shutter is doing, what it is made of and roughly when it was fitted, with photos if possible.

  2. Visit and diagnosis

    An engineer checks the shutter, finds the cause and explains the options.

  3. Your go-ahead

    You approve any parts or extra work before we carry it out.

  4. Work done, report left

    The shutter is tested after the work and you get a record of what was found and done.
