What to know about security roller shutters in Peterlee
The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning. Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down.
Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides. Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms.
Features to choose from
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Questions about security roller shutters in Peterlee
Do you cover Peterlee?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair security roller shutters in Peterlee and the SR8 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.
Should I choose aluminium or steel?
Aluminium is lighter, quieter and resists corrosion, so it suits most shops and offices. Galvanised steel is heavier and harder to cut through, so it is often chosen for industrial units and higher-risk premises.
Will I need planning permission?
External shutters on commercial premises usually need planning permission, and listed buildings need listed building consent. We flag this at survey so you can apply before the shutter is ordered.
Can a roller shutter be fitted inside the shop?
Yes. Internal shutters sit behind the glazing, which protects the stock and usually avoids external planning issues, although the glass itself is left exposed.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
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.
