Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Glasgow & Dunbartonshire

Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock. 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. The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning.

Features to choose from

  • External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
  • Key switch, remote control or timer operation
  • Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
  • Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them

Covering Glasgow & Dunbartonshire

We cover Glasgow & Dunbartonshire from Glasgow to Bearsden, Clydebank and Bishopbriggs, 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.

Security roller shutters: common questions

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.

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.

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.

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.
