Choosing aluminium roller shutters for premises in Barrow-in-Furness
Aluminium curtains roll up tighter than steel, so the shutter box can often be smaller. A lighter curtain puts less strain on the motor, springs and barrel, which helps the shutter last.
Aluminium is the usual choice for domestic shutters and garage roller doors. Extruded aluminium laths are solid profiles that are stronger and more resistant to forced entry than roll-formed laths.
What's included
- Powder coated to a RAL colour
- Smaller shutter box than steel
- Quieter running than steel
- No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
- Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
- Manual or electric operation

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Aluminium roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Barrow-in-Furness?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair aluminium roller shutters in Barrow-in-Furness and the LA14 district, as part of our coverage across Cumbria.
Is aluminium strong enough for a shop?
For most shops and offices, yes, especially extruded aluminium laths. For high-risk premises, galvanised steel or a rated shutter may be recommended.
What is the difference between roll-formed and extruded aluminium?
Roll-formed laths are two thin skins with a foam core, which is light and insulating. Extruded laths are solid profiles, which are heavier and much stronger.
Do aluminium shutters corrode by the sea?
Aluminium does not rust like steel, and a powder-coated finish adds protection, which makes it a good choice for coastal frontages.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
