Shop front shutters in Lerwick: the essentials

Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage.

Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.

Specification options

  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance

Before you book in Lerwick

Do you cover Lerwick?

Yes. Lerwick (ZE1) is within our Highlands & Islands coverage, along with the rest of Highlands & Islands.

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.

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.

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 details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
