How aluminium roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
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.
Features to choose from
- Manual or electric operation
- Quieter running than steel
- No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
- Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
- Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
- Solid, perforated or vision laths

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 Hemel Hempstead?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair aluminium roller shutters in Hemel Hempstead and the HP3 district, as part of our coverage across Hertfordshire.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
