What happens in Stornoway?
A frontage in Stornoway has to suit the street as well as the shop. Comhairle nan Eilean Siar decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.

What should you think about first?
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
Can it have a shutter later?
Yes, but it is far neater to allow for one now. Tell us at survey, and we will leave height behind the fascia even if the shutter comes later.
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
Do you need consent in Stornoway?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but Comhairle nan Eilean Siar has the final say. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
