What can you expect in Kirkintilloch?
Our surveys in Kirkintilloch cover postcodes including G66, along with Lenzie and Bishopbriggs. Planning applications here go to East Dunbartonshire 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.
