How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for
We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose. Like-for-like replacements on existing fixings are usually quicker to fit than new installations. The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement.
If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first.
Specification options
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Box relocation where possible
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides

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.

Questions about shutter replacement in Lanarkshire
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.
Can I keep my shutter box and just replace the curtain?
Often yes, if the box, barrel and guides are sound. We inspect them and price both options.
Will you take the old shutter away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.
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 you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
