Rules that apply in Hamilton
In Hamilton, as elsewhere in Scotland, planning questions go to your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- 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.
- 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.

Questions about shop roller shutters in Hamilton
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.
How long does installation take?
Most single shopfront shutters are fitted in a day once made.
Do I need permission for shop roller shutters in Hamilton?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. We recommend checking with your council first.
Is the survey free in Hamilton?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Hamilton are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
