Steel roller shutters in St Andrews: questions
Can steel shutters be painted?
They are best powder-coated in the factory; site painting rarely lasts on a moving curtain.
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.
Do you cover St Andrews?
Yes, we survey and fit in St Andrews (KY16) as part of our Fife coverage.
Do I need permission for steel roller shutters in St Andrews?
It depends on the property. 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. Check with your council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
