Aluminium roller shutters in Lerwick: questions
Are aluminium shutters strong enough for a shop?
Extruded aluminium shutters are very robust and suit many shops; very wide or high-risk openings may still be better in steel.
What colours can I have?
White, anthracite, black, cream, silver, brown and woodgrains as standard, plus RAL colours to order.
Do I need permission for aluminium roller shutters in Lerwick?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need consent. We recommend checking with your council first.
How much do aluminium roller shutters cost in Lerwick?
Typical prices are shown above. A survey at your property in Lerwick confirms the specification and fixes the price.
