Choosing aluminium roller shutters for premises in Gateshead

Aluminium does not rust, so it suits coastal towns and exposed frontages. Perforated aluminium laths are available for frontages where the display needs to stay visible.

Aluminium curtains roll up tighter than steel, so the shutter box can often be smaller. Roll-formed aluminium laths are two skins of aluminium with an insulating foam core, which keeps them light.

Specification options

  • No rust, suited to coastal and exposed sites
  • Roll-formed foam-filled or extruded aluminium laths
  • Manual or electric operation
  • Lighter curtain for less wear on motors and springs
  • Powder coated to a RAL colour
  • 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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Gateshead?

Yes. Gateshead (NE8) is within our Tyne and Wear coverage, along with nearby Wallsend, Hebburn and Jarrow.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
