Shop roller shutters in Truro
We survey and install across Cornwall, and Truro is one of the cities covered. Falmouth, Redruth and Newquay are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.
We check the fascia, the box space and the power supply on every shopfront in Truro before quoting, so the fixed price reflects the real job.
If your shop in Truro is on a parade or in a conservation area, the look of the shutter matters as much as the security, so we talk through planning-friendly options such as perforated laths or a box behind the fascia.

Planning and safety in Truro
Truro is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Powered shutters: Powered shutters are set up so their safety devices work, and should be maintained. Workplace rules expect powered doors to be safe in use.
- Planning: A new shutter on a shopfront usually needs planning permission, because it changes how the building looks; councils often prefer perforated shutters or internal grilles, and some areas have shopfront design guides. Listed buildings also need listed building consent.
- Fire exits: A shutter must not obstruct a fire exit while the premises are occupied. We discuss operating procedures and any interlocks with you.
