What happens in Dumfries?
Our surveys in Dumfries cover postcodes including DG1 and DG2, along with Lockerbie and Dalbeattie. Planning applications here go to Dumfries and Galloway Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What is worth knowing?
How is the shutter controlled?
By key switch, remote or both, and we specify a manual override for power cuts. Keep the override instructions somewhere that staff can find them.
What about a fire exit?
A shutter must never trap people in. If it covers an escape route, it needs to be open while the premises are occupied, or opened easily from inside.
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.
How much will it cost?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Dumfries?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Dumfries and Galloway 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.
