How aluminium roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Extruded aluminium laths are solid profiles that are stronger and more resistant to forced entry than roll-formed laths. Foam-filled laths reduce noise and add a little insulation compared with single-skin metal.

Aluminium is the usual choice for domestic shutters and garage roller doors. A lighter curtain puts less strain on the motor, springs and barrel, which helps the shutter last.

Specification options

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

Rules in England

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.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Southend-on-Sea

Do you cover Southend-on-Sea?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Southend-on-Sea. We also cover nearby Rayleigh, Canvey Island and South Benfleet.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
