Our shop roller shutters service in Wimbledon
Whether your property is in the centre of Wimbledon or on its edges, it is included in our Greater London coverage. We also cover Morden, Mitcham and Putney, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
Wimbledon sits some 7 miles to the south-west of central London.
If your shop in Wimbledon 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.
Perforated and grille shutters let passers-by in Wimbledon see the window display after hours, which many councils prefer on shopping streets.

Planning and safety in Wimbledon
As an English town, Wimbledon follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the permitted development rules in England.
- 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.
- Fire exits: A shutter must not obstruct a fire exit while the premises are occupied. We discuss operating procedures and any interlocks with you.
- 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.

Questions about shop roller shutters in Wimbledon
Do I need planning permission for a shop shutter?
Usually yes. A new external shutter on a shopfront changes how the building looks, so most councils expect an application, and some have shopfront design guides that prefer perforated shutters or internal grilles. We can supply drawings and product details.
Should I choose solid or perforated?
Solid gives the most privacy and weather protection. Perforated lets light out and allows window shopping out of hours, which many councils and landlords prefer.

We use the same UK guide prices in Wimbledon; after the survey you get a fixed written price for your opening.
Is the survey free in Wimbledon?
