What to know about aluminium roller shutters in Edinburgh

Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light. Aluminium laths take powder coating well, so they can be finished in almost any RAL colour.

For higher-risk sites, extruded aluminium or galvanised steel is usually preferred to foam-filled laths. Extruded aluminium laths are solid profiles that are stronger and more resistant to forced entry than roll-formed laths.

What's included

  • Manual or electric operation
  • Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
  • No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
  • Solid, perforated or vision laths
  • Quieter running than steel

Questions about aluminium roller shutters in Edinburgh

Do you cover Edinburgh?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair aluminium roller shutters in Edinburgh and the EH1 district, as part of our coverage across Edinburgh & the Lothians.

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.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

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.
