Fitting in Inverness and nearby

We can arrange roller security grilles across Inverness, the main centre for Highland, and in nearby towns including Dingwall, Nairn and Aviemore.

The Highlands are one of the most sparsely populated parts of the UK, with Inverness as the main centre and many remote homes, holiday lets and small-town shops.

Typical places for this kind of grille include:

Shops with deep heads above the glazing
Shopping centre and arcade units
Counters and kiosks
Wide internal openings and lobbies

Things to decide before you order

Head space

The coil box needs height above the opening. If there is no room inside, a retractable grille is usually a better fit.

Inside or outside

Inside a shopping centre or behind glazing the grille is protected. External roller grilles normally need planning permission.

Rules that apply in Scotland

Scotland

External grilles and planning

External grilles and shutters on commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the council under the Scottish planning system. Councils' shopfront guidance commonly prefers internal, open-mesh security, particularly in conservation areas and town centres.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 make the duty holder keep escape routes and exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be open whenever the premises are occupied.

Roller security grilles in Inverness: questions

Which areas near Inverness do you cover?

We can arrange work in Inverness and in nearby Dingwall (11 miles), Nairn (15 miles) and Aviemore (25 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

What happens to an electric grille in a power cut?

Powered grilles have a manual override, usually a crank or chain, so they can be raised or lowered without power.

Do roller grilles need planning permission?

Internal roller grilles generally do not. External ones normally do, and councils often prefer open-mesh grilles to solid shutters where something external is allowed.

Is a roller grille the same as a roller shutter?

No. A shutter uses solid or perforated slats; a grille uses an open mesh of tubes and links, so you can see through it and air can pass.
