Our window roller shutters service in Annan
Annan is roughly 15 miles east of Dumfries.
You do not have to do every window at once: in Annan we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
Bedroom shutters in Annan can run on a timer, closing at night and opening in the morning without anyone touching a switch.
If your address has a DG12 postcode, it falls within our Dumfries & Galloway coverage. Dumfries, Castle Douglas and Hawick are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.

What to check in Annan before ordering
In Annan, as elsewhere in Scotland, planning questions go to your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- Electrics: Motors are wired to BS 7671 and the Scottish building standards for electrical safety.
- Ventilation: A closed shutter reduces airflow round trickle vents, so on rooms with gas appliances or poor ventilation we specify slotted laths or a part-open setting.
- Planning: Whether external shutters on a house need permission depends on the property and the council. Listed buildings need consent for external alterations, and conservation areas often bring tighter rules, so check before ordering. We provide drawings and product details for an application.
- Escape windows: If a shutter covers a window you would use to get out in a fire, it must open from inside without a key. We fit a manual override or battery backup on those openings.

Window roller shutters in Annan: questions
Will a shutter stop me opening my window?
No. The shutter runs outside the window, so you can still open casements when it is raised. Inward-opening tilt-and-turn windows can also be opened with the shutter down.
Can I fit shutters to just some windows?
Yes. Many people start with ground-floor windows facing the street or the bedrooms they want dark, and add more later in a matching finish.
Is the survey free in Annan?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do I need permission for window roller shutters in Annan?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your council first.
