Planning and safety in East Kilbride
In East Kilbride, as elsewhere in Scotland, planning questions go to your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- 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.
- Fire exits: A shutter must not obstruct a fire exit while the premises are occupied. We discuss operating procedures and any interlocks with you.
- 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 East Kilbride: questions
Should I choose solid or perforated?
Solid gives the most privacy and weather protection. Perforated lets light out and allows window shopping out of hours, which many councils and landlords prefer.
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.
