Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Edinburgh
Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides. Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms.
Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available. Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer.
Features to choose from
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation

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 Edinburgh?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Edinburgh. We also cover nearby Musselburgh, Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline.
How long does a roller shutter take to fit?
Most single shopfront shutters are fitted in a day once they have been made. Wider frontages, steel-framed openings or new power supplies can add time, and we confirm the installation day with your quote.
Should I choose aluminium or steel?
Aluminium is lighter, quieter and resists corrosion, so it suits most shops and offices. Galvanised steel is heavier and harder to cut through, so it is often chosen for industrial units and higher-risk premises.
Will I need planning permission?
External shutters on commercial premises usually need planning permission, and listed buildings need listed building consent. We flag this at survey so you can apply before the shutter is ordered.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
