Planning and safety in Stornoway
In Stornoway, as elsewhere in Scotland, planning questions go to your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- Planning: Solar shutters look much the same as mains shutters from outside, so the same planning advice applies.
- Orientation: We check daylight on the panel at survey; heavily shaded openings may need a remote panel or mains power.
