How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for

Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.

Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on.

Options we can specify

  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Key switch and remote operation

Rules in Scotland

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Musselburgh?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Musselburgh and the EH21 district, as part of our coverage across Edinburgh & the Lothians.

Will a shutter lower my insurance premium?

It can help, and some insurers require a shutter for certain trades. Check your policy schedule for any stated standard before you order so the shutter meets it.

Can I keep my window display visible at night?

Yes. Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths, or an open roller grille, let the display show through while the shopfront is secured.

Do I need planning permission for a shop shutter?

In most cases yes. External shutters change the appearance of a shopfront, so councils usually require planning permission, and listed buildings also need listed building consent. Internal shutters often do not need planning permission but may still need consent on a listed building.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
