Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Wick
Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.
Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night.
Options we can specify
- Manual override for power cuts
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Key switch and remote operation
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Separate door and window shutters if needed

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.

Shop front shutters: common questions
Do you cover Wick?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Wick and the KW1 district, as part of our coverage across Highlands & Islands.
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.
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.
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.
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.
