What to know about roller grilles in Dundee & Angus
Wide grilles use intermediate posts or a stronger curtain to resist being pushed in. Roller grilles roll into a box like a shutter, and can be manual or electric. Councils often see roller grilles as more acceptable than solid shutters in town centres.
An open curtain lets air and light through, so displays stay on view and the unit does not look closed down. Brick-bond, tubular and link patterns give different levels of visibility and strength.
Specification options
- Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice
- Solid kick panel option
- Aluminium or steel curtains
- Removable intermediate posts for wide units
- Optional polycarbonate infill
- Anodised or powder-coated finishes

Covering Dundee & Angus
We cover Dundee & Angus from Dundee to Arbroath, Forfar and Montrose, 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
Can things be passed through a grille?
Small items can pass through an open lattice. Polycarbonate infill panels close the gaps if that is a concern.
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.
Can a grille cover a very wide unit?
Yes, with a stronger curtain or removable intermediate posts to keep it rigid.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
