What to know about shop front shutters in Alloa
Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage. Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night.
Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.
What's included
- Manual override for power cuts
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Key switch and remote operation
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains

Shop front shutters: common questions
Do you cover Alloa?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Alloa. We also cover nearby Falkirk, Dunfermline and Cumbernauld.
Can the shutter match my shopfront colour?
Yes. Shutters can be powder coated to a RAL colour, and the box and guides can be finished to match.
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.
Which shutter is most likely to get planning approval?
Councils commonly prefer internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs, and boxes hidden behind the fascia. Solid external shutters are often refused in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
