What should you think about first?
Can the shutter match my frontage?
Yes. Curtain, box and guides are powder coated to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as the finish allows.
Do I need a safety edge?
That depends on the risk assessment. Powered shutters near the public are assessed against BS EN 12453, and we quote what the result calls for.
Do you work on any make?
Most commercial shutters and door gear. We will tell you straight away if parts are no longer available.
Will this need planning permission in Lerwick?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Shetland Islands Council will normally expect a planning application. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
