Shutter replacement in Argyll & Bute: the essentials

Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter. The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement. A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths.

If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything. If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start.

Features to choose from

  • Manual to electric at the same time
  • Removal of the old shutter
  • Repair and replace priced side by side
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
  • Box relocation where possible

Covering Argyll & Bute

We cover Argyll & Bute from Helensburgh to Oban and Dunoon, 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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Shutter replacement: common questions

Will you take the old shutter away?

Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.

Do I need planning permission to replace a shutter?

A like-for-like replacement often does not, but changing the design, colour or position of an external shutter may. We check with you before ordering.

Is it worth upgrading when I replace?

It is the cheapest time to add electric operation, perforated laths or insulation, because the work is being done anyway.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
