How aluminium roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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. For higher-risk sites, extruded aluminium or galvanised steel is usually preferred to foam-filled laths.
Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light. Aluminium is the usual choice for domestic shutters and garage roller doors.
Features to choose from
- Smaller shutter box than steel
- Solid, perforated or vision laths
- Quieter running than steel
- Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
- No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
- Powder coated to a RAL colour

Covering Dyfed
We cover Dyfed from Llanelli to Ammanford, Carmarthen and Aberystwyth, with 6 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Wales, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in Wales
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.
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 Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.

Before you book in Dyfed
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.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
