What we do
Roller shutters for Greenock and Inverclyde
Greenock grew as a shipbuilding and sugar town on the Firth of Clyde, and the waterfront is still at the centre of its identity, from the cruise ships that call at the Ocean Terminal to the businesses along the old docks. Industrial and trade premises are spread across the Drumfrochar and Lynedoch industrial estates, the Larkfield area and business centres in the east end of the town.
The town centre around West Blackhall Street, Cathcart Street and the Oak Mall is going through a major redevelopment led by Inverclyde Council, aimed at modernising the centre and making it a more attractive place to live, work and do business. As shops relocate and new premises open, good shutters are a key part of protecting them.
Weather is a big factor here. Strong winds and salty air off the Clyde are hard on shutters, so we often recommend wind locks, coated laths and corrosion resistant fixings. Greenock is only around 25 minutes from our Hillington workshop along the M8 and A8, so we can usually reach you quickly.

FAQs
Roller shutter questions from Greenock customers
Do I need planning permission for a shop shutter in Greenock?
External shutters on commercial premises usually need planning permission from Inverclyde Council, and parts of the town centre are in conservation areas. Check with the council before work starts. We can suggest designs that are more likely to be approved.
Which shutters are best for windy, exposed sites?
For exposed sites near the Clyde we usually recommend wind locks on wider openings, coated or galvanised laths and corrosion resistant fixings. Our article on wind locks explains how they work.
How quickly can you reach Greenock?
Greenock is around 25 minutes from our Hillington base along the M8 and A8. Emergency repairs are available, and we will give you a realistic arrival time when you call.
Do you cover Gourock and Port Glasgow?
Yes. We cover the whole of Inverclyde, including Gourock, Port Glasgow, Inverkip, Wemyss Bay and Kilmacolm.
Can you repair a corroded shutter or should it be replaced?
It depends on how far the corrosion has spread. Damaged laths, guides and bottom rails can often be replaced on their own. We will inspect the shutter and give you an honest recommendation.
