What can you expect in Rutherglen?
Rutherglen sits in Lanarkshire, and South Lanarkshire Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What is worth knowing?
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
Surface box or hidden box?
A surface box under the fascia is quicker and cheaper. A hidden box looks far better, but needs height above the door head and a removable access panel.
What should you budget?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent in Rutherglen?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so South 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.
What do people ask about perforated roller shutters in Rutherglen?
How soon can you fit a perforated roller shutter in Rutherglen?
Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks after survey. We agree the fitting day with you.
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 Rutherglen?
An external shutter usually needs it, and South Lanarkshire Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
Are perforated shutters as strong as solid ones?
Close to it. The holes are small and the lath keeps its shape, though a solid lath is still stronger.
