How aluminium roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
A lighter curtain puts less strain on the motor, springs and barrel, which helps the shutter last. Aluminium is the usual choice for domestic shutters and garage roller doors.
What's included
- Smaller shutter box than steel
- 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
- Solid, perforated or vision laths
- Manual or electric operation

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 North Shields?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair aluminium roller shutters in North Shields and the NE29 district, as part of our coverage across Tyne and Wear.
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.
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.
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.
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 you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
