Planning and safety in Coatbridge
As a Scottish town, Coatbridge follows the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 and the Scottish permitted development rules.
- 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.

Shop roller shutters in Coatbridge: questions
Do I need planning permission for a shop shutter?
Usually yes. A new external shutter on a shopfront changes how the building looks, so most councils expect an application, and some have shopfront design guides that prefer perforated shutters or internal grilles. We can supply drawings and product details.
Can you replace just the curtain?
Often, yes. If the box, barrel and guides are sound, a new curtain is cheaper than a complete shutter.
Is the survey free in Coatbridge?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do you cover Coatbridge?
Yes. Coatbridge and the ML5 postcode district are part of our coverage across Lanarkshire.
