How aluminium roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Aluminium curtains roll up tighter than steel, so the shutter box can often be smaller. Aluminium does not rust, so it suits coastal towns and exposed frontages.

Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light. Aluminium is the usual choice for domestic shutters and garage roller doors.

Options we can specify

  • Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
  • Manual or electric operation
  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
  • Solid, perforated or vision laths
  • Quieter running than steel
  • Smaller shutter box than steel

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.

Before you book in St Helens

Do you cover St Helens?

Yes. St Helens (WA10) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Prescot, Ashton-in-Makerfield and Huyton.

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.

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.

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.

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.
