What should Exeter owners check first?

  • Externally fitted shutters often need planning permission, and some councils prefer internal grilles.
  • Your insurer may specify the security rating it wants.
  • Electric shutters need safety edges or photocells to stop them closing on people.

Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
