How does it work across the Scottish Islands?
Our teams cover Stornoway, Kirkwall and Lerwick and the rest of the Scottish Islands. If your shop is in a conservation area or a listed building, tell us at the start, because it changes the options. Stornoway, Kirkwall and Lerwick are the island centres, where exposure and shipping shape what can be fitted and when.
What should you think about first?
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 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.
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.
