How roller grilles work, and what to ask for

Grilles can be combined with a solid section at the base for kick protection. Aluminium grilles are lighter and suit large unit fronts; steel grilles add strength.

An open curtain lets air and light through, so displays stay on view and the unit does not look closed down. Wide grilles use intermediate posts or a stronger curtain to resist being pushed in.

Features to choose from

  • Manual or electric operation
  • Aluminium or steel curtains
  • Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice
  • Anodised or powder-coated finishes
  • Removable intermediate posts for wide units
  • Optional polycarbonate infill

Covering Darlington and nearby

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

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.

Roller grilles: common questions

Do you cover Darlington?

Yes. Darlington (DL3) is within our County Durham coverage, along with nearby Newton Aycliffe, Stockton-on-Tees and Thornaby-on-Tees.

Can a grille cover a very wide unit?

Yes, with a stronger curtain or removable intermediate posts to keep it rigid.

Do roller grilles need planning permission?

External roller grilles usually need planning permission like other external security. Councils often find them more acceptable than solid shutters.

Is a roller grille or a perforated shutter better?

A grille gives far more visibility and airflow, while a perforated shutter gives more privacy and weather protection. Shopping centres often specify grilles; high streets use both.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
