Window roller shutters in Paisley
We survey and install across Renfrewshire & Inverclyde, and Paisley is one of the towns covered. Other towns nearby that we cover include Johnstone, Renfrew and Clydebank.
Window shutters are usually chosen for security when a house is empty, for blackout in bedrooms or for keeping summer heat off the glass, and the survey in Paisley starts with which of those matters most to you.
Each window in Paisley is measured to the real opening, including the lintel, render beads and cill, which is why the survey comes before any price is fixed.
Which options suit you?
What you can choose when we survey in Paisley:

Planning and safety in Paisley
Paisley is in Scotland, so planning decisions sit with your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Frequently asked 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.
Do window shutters need planning permission?
It depends on the house and the council. External shutters on a listed building need listed building consent, and conservation areas and some councils apply tighter controls. On many ordinary houses no application is needed, but check with your council before ordering; we supply drawings if you need to apply.
