Choosing steel roller shutters for premises in Dumfries & Galloway

Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets. Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top. Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds.

Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain. Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters.

What's included

  • Insulated steel options
  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Manual, crank or electric operation
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings

Covering Dumfries & Galloway

We cover Dumfries & Galloway from Dumfries to Stranraer, Newton Stewart and Kirkcudbright, with 4 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.

Steel roller shutters: common questions

Will a steel shutter rust?

Galvanising protects the steel, and powder coating adds a further layer. Scratches and damage should be touched up so moisture cannot reach bare metal.

Are steel shutters noisy?

Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium. If noise matters, insulated double-skin laths and a well-adjusted motor help.

Can a steel shutter have a door in it?

Yes, industrial steel shutters can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
