How does it work across Ayrshire?
We work right across Ayrshire, including Kilmarnock, Ayr, Irvine and Kilwinning. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Councils here include East Ayrshire, North Ayrshire and South Ayrshire. Coastal towns such as Ayr, Troon and Largs sit beside inland centres such as Kilmarnock, so wind-driven salt is a real factor on some frontages and not on others.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
Does a shutter need planning permission?
An external shutter usually does. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. An internal grille or shutter is usually the safer route, so we can advise what to check before you order.
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.
