What happens in Dunbar?
A job starts the same way wherever you are: a measured survey, a look at the lintel and floor level, and a conversation about how the unit trades. We cover postcodes including EH42, and we also work nearby in North Berwick and Haddington.
What should you check before you decide?
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
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.

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