What happens across Aberdeenshire and Moray?
Our teams cover Aberdeen, Elgin, Peterhead and Inverurie and the rest of Aberdeenshire and Moray. If your shop is in a conservation area or a listed building, tell us at the start, because it changes the options. Granite is the building material in Aberdeen and Peterhead, while Elgin and much of Moray are built of sandstone, and pale stone frontages show every badly matched frame.
What is worth knowing?
What does one drawing change?
Everything lines up: door head, guide channels, fascia, sign fixing and power supply. It also gives your council or landlord one clear document to look at.
Is the box accessible for servicing?
It has to be. We build in a removable panel so that an engineer can reach the motor, brake and spring parts.
Can I phase the work?
Yes. If cash flow is tight, we can fit the frontage first and leave the box, guides and power ready for the shutter later.

Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so your 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.
