Shop shutters for properties in Dundee
If your address has a Dundee postcode, it falls within our Dundee & Angus coverage. Other towns nearby that we cover include Forfar, Carnoustie and St Andrews.
If your shop in Dundee is on a parade or in a conservation area, the look of the shutter matters as much as the security, so we talk through planning-friendly options such as perforated laths or a box behind the fascia.
We check the fascia, the box space and the power supply on every shopfront in Dundee before quoting, so the fixed price reflects the real job.

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).
- Fire exits: A shutter must not obstruct a fire exit while the premises are occupied. We discuss operating procedures and any interlocks with you.
- Planning: A new shutter on a shopfront usually needs planning permission, because it changes how the building looks; councils often prefer perforated shutters or internal grilles, and some areas have shopfront design guides. Listed buildings also need listed building consent.
- Powered shutters: Powered shutters are set up so their safety devices work, and should be maintained. Workplace rules expect powered doors to be safe in use.
