What happens in Falkirk?
Local rules matter more than people expect. Falkirk Council handles planning for Falkirk, and its view of external shutters and frontage changes shapes what we recommend.
What makes the difference?
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.
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 electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.

Will this need planning permission in Falkirk?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Falkirk 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.

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.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Falkirk?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Falkirk Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
How soon can you fit a perforated roller shutter in Falkirk?
Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks after survey. We agree the fitting day with you.
Are perforated shutters more likely to get planning permission?
Not reliably. Some councils accept them and others resist them, so check with your council before you order.
