Planning and safety in Dundee
In Dundee, as elsewhere in Scotland, planning questions go to your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- Weather: Perforations let some wind and rain through, so think about the glazing behind and draughts in exposed spots.
- Planning: A perforated shutter is often the type councils will accept on a shopfront, but an application is usually still needed.

Perforated roller shutters in Dundee: questions
Are perforated shutters less secure?
They are slightly lighter than solid shutters of the same gauge, but still form a strong physical barrier. Solid bottom laths add kick resistance.
Can I see into the shop through a perforated shutter?
Yes, especially when the shop is lit. Punched vision laths give a clearer view.
Do you cover Dundee?
Yes. Dundee and the city's postcode districts are part of our coverage across Dundee & Angus.
Do I need permission for perforated roller shutters in Dundee?
It depends on the property. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. Check with your council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
