Security roller shutters in Lanarkshire: the essentials
Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock. Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available.
Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning.
Options we can specify
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters

Covering Lanarkshire
We cover Lanarkshire from East Kilbride to Hamilton, Cumbernauld and Coatbridge, with 9 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.

Questions about security roller shutters in Lanarkshire
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.
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.
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.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
