Electric roller shutters in Forfar: the essentials

Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.

Features to choose from

  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

Jobs in Forfar are planned as part of our Dundee & Angus coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Arbroath and Montrose. Planning rules are those of your local council in Scotland.

Rules in Scotland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Forfar?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Forfar and the DD8 district, as part of our coverage across Dundee & Angus.

Do I need a new electrical circuit?

Usually not. Most shutters run from a fused spur near the shutter box. If there is no supply nearby, a new circuit is quoted separately and done by a qualified electrician.

Can I open the shutter with my phone?

Yes, many motors can be paired with a smart controller for app or timer control. Ask for it at survey and we will confirm whether your motor supports it.

Are safety edges always needed?

Not always. It depends on the risk assessment: who uses the opening, whether people or vehicles pass under it, and how the shutter is controlled. Hold-to-run key switches on a shopfront often need less than an automatic industrial door.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
