Roller shutters and security contractors in Kelso
From the first measured survey to the day you open, our roller shutters and security work in Kelso is planned around your lease, your landlord and your trading hours.
Shop roller shutters are steel or aluminium curtains that roll into a box above the shopfront, closed at night to protect the glass and stock. Perforated and grille types let light and window display show through.
How is the work priced?
Before we price roller shutters and security in Kelso, we check the lease, the landlord's fit-out rules, the existing services and how materials can get into the unit.

What should Kelso owners check first?
- Externally fitted shutters often need planning permission, and some councils prefer internal grilles.
- Your insurer may specify the security rating it wants.
- Electric shutters need safety edges or photocells to stop them closing on people.
In Scotland, most fit-out work that alters the building needs a building warrant from the local authority before work starts, followed by a completion certificate. Planning permission and advertisement consent are separate, and Scottish councils publish their own shopfront design guidance.
