What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission across the Scottish Islands?
Often not, because the outside does not change, but check with your council if the building is listed. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.

Do I need planning permission for a shutter across the Scottish Islands?
