What happens across the Scottish Borders?
In the Scottish Borders, the usual route is the same wherever you are: a measured survey, an itemised quotation, then fitting at a time that suits the shop. Towns we cover include Hawick, Galashiels, Peebles and Kelso. Hawick, Galashiels, Kelso and Peebles are stone textile and market towns.
What makes the difference?
Should I choose solid or perforated?
Solid gives more privacy and strength. Perforated keeps the window working at night. On the outside of a shop, some councils resist both, so check before you choose.
Is the box accessible for servicing?
It has to be. We build in a removable panel so that an engineer can reach the motor, brake and spring parts.
Can I phase the work?
Yes. If cash flow is tight, we can fit the frontage first and leave the box, guides and power ready for the shutter later.
What are the guide prices?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission across the Scottish Borders?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so your 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 shopfront and shutter packages across the Scottish Borders?
Who decides planning for a frontage across the Scottish Borders?
Your council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.
Do you cover the Scottish Borders for both the shopfront and shutter?
Yes. One surveyor and one fitting team handle both parts across the Scottish Borders.
Can you fit a package around my trading hours across the Scottish Borders?
Yes. Closed-day or out-of-hours fitting can be arranged.
How long will my shop be closed?
That depends on the job, and your quotation sets out the fitting days. We plan the work around trading hours and can arrange closed-day or out-of-hours fitting.
