What can you expect in Motherwell?
Motherwell sits in Lanarkshire, and North Lanarkshire Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What should you check before you decide?
Do I need a safety edge?
That depends on the risk assessment. Powered shutters near the public are assessed against BS EN 12453, and we quote what the result calls for.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £1,750 to £2,295 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £2,195 to £2,895 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £2,695 to £3,495 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £3,195 to £4,295 |
Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Motherwell?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so North Lanarkshire 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.
