Choosing aluminium roller shutters for premises in Derby

Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light. A lighter curtain puts less strain on the motor, springs and barrel, which helps the shutter last.

Aluminium curtains roll up tighter than steel, so the shutter box can often be smaller. Aluminium laths take powder coating well, so they can be finished in almost any RAL colour.

Specification options

  • Solid, perforated or vision laths
  • No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
  • Powder coated to a RAL colour
  • Smaller shutter box than steel
  • Quieter running than steel

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.

Before you book in Derby

Do you cover Derby?

Yes. Derby (DE1) is within our Derbyshire coverage, along with nearby Belper, Ilkeston and Heanor.

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.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

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.
