What happens in Stornoway?
Working in Stornoway means working with Comhairle nan Eilean Siar on planning, and sometimes with a landlord on the lease. We flag both early, so that neither one holds up your opening date.
What makes the difference?
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 long does a shutter last?
Curtains and guides can last many years with planned servicing. Motors, springs and locks go first, and a busy shop will wear them faster.
What will my insurer want?
Some insurers name a shutter type or rating, and many ask for locks and service records. Ask them before you order, as it saves a change later.
How much will it cost?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent in Stornoway?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Comhairle nan Eilean Siar 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.
What do people ask about high-security shutters in Stornoway?
How soon can you fit a high-security shutter in Stornoway?
Lead time is confirmed on your quotation. We agree the fitting day with you.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Stornoway?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Comhairle nan Eilean Siar decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
Can you match the shutter to my shopfront?
Yes. We powder coat to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as we can.
What rating do I need?
Ask your insurer first. Many specify a rating or leave it to a survey.
