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.

Aluminium is the usual choice for domestic shutters and garage roller doors. Foam-filled laths reduce noise and add a little insulation compared with single-skin metal.

Features to choose from

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

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  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.

Questions about aluminium roller shutters in Croydon

Do you cover Croydon?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Croydon. We also cover nearby South Croydon, Wallington and Carshalton.

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.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
