Frequently asked questions
Why do councils prefer perforated shutters?
They keep shopping streets looking lit and active after hours rather than lined with blank steel, which many shopfront design guides encourage.
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 I need permission for perforated roller shutters in East Kilbride?
New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. If you are unsure, ask your council; we provide product details for any application.
Do you cover East Kilbride?
Yes. Book a survey for any address in East Kilbride in the usual way; it is covered as part of Lanarkshire.
