What to know about roller shutter installation in Scottish Borders

Access equipment, road or pavement licences and out-of-hours fitting are arranged where needed. The fixed price is confirmed in writing before any work starts. Powered shutters are handed over with user instructions, maintenance guidance and a declaration of conformity.

The shutter is made to the survey measurements, so it fits the opening rather than being adapted on site. Planning permission and listed building consent are checked before the shutter is ordered.

Covering Scottish Borders

We cover Scottish Borders from Galashiels to Hawick and Peebles, with 3 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.
