Choosing aluminium roller shutters for premises in Watford
Foam-filled laths reduce noise and add a little insulation compared with single-skin metal. Extruded aluminium laths are solid profiles that are stronger and more resistant to forced entry than roll-formed laths.
Perforated aluminium laths are available for frontages where the display needs to stay visible. Aluminium does not rust, so it suits coastal towns and exposed frontages.
What's included
- Powder coated to a RAL colour
- Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
- Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
- No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
- Smaller shutter box than steel
- 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.

Aluminium roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Watford?
Yes. Watford (WD17) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Bushey, Rickmansworth and Borehamwood.
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.
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 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.
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.
