Castle Douglas sits some 16 miles to the west of Dumfries.

For warehouses, depots and workshops in and around Castle Douglas, the door is sized to the opening, the wind on that elevation and the number of cycles a day.

Frequently asked questions
Is steel or aluminium better?
Steel is stronger for the money and suits big openings; aluminium is lighter, corrosion-resistant and neater, and suits homes, shops and coastal sites.
Can steel shutters be painted?
They are best powder-coated in the factory; site painting rarely lasts on a moving curtain.
Is the survey free in Castle Douglas?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Castle Douglas are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for steel roller shutters in Castle Douglas?
Possibly. New doors on industrial buildings can need planning permission if they change the elevation, and doors in fire compartment walls must suit the fire strategy. We recommend checking with your council first.
