What to know about aluminium roller shutters in Devon

Extruded aluminium laths are solid profiles that are stronger and more resistant to forced entry than roll-formed laths. Aluminium does not rust, so it suits coastal towns and exposed frontages. Aluminium curtains roll up tighter than steel, so the shutter box can often be smaller.

Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light. For higher-risk sites, extruded aluminium or galvanised steel is usually preferred to foam-filled laths.

Options we can specify

  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
  • Quieter running than steel
  • Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
  • Smaller shutter box than steel
  • No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
  • Powder coated to a RAL colour

Covering Devon

We cover Devon from Plymouth to Exeter, Paignton and Torquay, with 9 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.

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.

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Questions about aluminium roller shutters in Devon

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.

Will an aluminium shutter dent?

Foam-filled laths can dent under a heavy impact. Extruded aluminium resists denting far better, and damaged laths can be replaced individually.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
