Frequently asked questions
How much does a door roller shutter cost?
A single door is usually £795–£1,195 including VAT, electric, supplied and fitted. Wider openings and doors with side lights cost more.
Are door shutters secure?
They add a strong physical layer in front of the door, especially with anti-lift locking. If you need a tested security rating, ask for a shutter certified to LPS 1175 or STS 202; the rating belongs to that tested product. PAS 24 applies to the door or window behind the shutter, not to the shutter itself.
Do I need permission for door roller shutters in Cumbernauld?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your council first.
