What to know about aluminium roller shutters in Chalk Farm

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 does not rust, so it suits coastal towns and exposed frontages. Aluminium laths take powder coating well, so they can be finished in almost any RAL colour.

Features to choose from

  • Smaller shutter box than steel
  • Quieter running than steel
  • Powder coated to a RAL colour
  • Solid, perforated or vision laths
  • Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Chalk Farm?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Chalk Farm. We also cover nearby Camden Town, Holloway and Archway.

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.

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.

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.

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.
