What to know about roller grilles in Dumfries & Galloway
Wide grilles use intermediate posts or a stronger curtain to resist being pushed in. Shopping centres often require roller grilles rather than solid shutters on unit fronts. Roller grilles roll into a box like a shutter, and can be manual or electric.
Grilles can be combined with a solid section at the base for kick protection. An open curtain lets air and light through, so displays stay on view and the unit does not look closed down.
Specification options
- Suited to shopping centre unit fronts
- Aluminium or steel curtains
- Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice
- Manual or electric operation
- Optional polycarbonate infill
- Solid kick panel option

Covering Dumfries & Galloway
We cover Dumfries & Galloway from Dumfries to Stranraer, Newton Stewart and Kirkcudbright, with 4 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Scotland, and we check the position at survey.
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.
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.

Your questions answered
Do roller grilles need planning permission?
External roller grilles usually need planning permission like other external security. Councils often find them more acceptable than solid shutters.
Can a grille cover a very wide unit?
Yes, with a stronger curtain or removable intermediate posts to keep it rigid.
Is a roller grille or a perforated shutter better?
A grille gives far more visibility and airflow, while a perforated shutter gives more privacy and weather protection. Shopping centres often specify grilles; high streets use both.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
