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 laths take powder coating well, so they can be finished in almost any RAL colour.

Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light. Extruded aluminium laths are solid profiles that are stronger and more resistant to forced entry than roll-formed laths.

Options we can specify

  • Manual or electric operation
  • No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
  • Smaller shutter box than steel
  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
  • Powder coated to a RAL colour
  • Quieter running than steel

Rules in Scotland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  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 Kirkwall

Do you cover Kirkwall?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Kirkwall. We also cover the rest of Highlands & Islands.

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.

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.

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 you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
