Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Forth Valley
The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock. Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down.
Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. 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
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths

Covering Forth Valley
We cover Forth Valley from Stirling to Falkirk and Alloa, with 3 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.

Security roller shutters: common questions
Do electric shutters still work in a power cut?
Electric shutters are fitted with a manual override, usually a hand crank or a release, so the shutter can be opened or closed without power.
Can a roller shutter be fitted inside the shop?
Yes. Internal shutters sit behind the glazing, which protects the stock and usually avoids external planning issues, although the glass itself is left exposed.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
