Security roller shutters in Seaham: the essentials

Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer.

Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down. Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available.

Options we can specify

  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
  • Key switch, remote control or timer operation
  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
  • Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
  • Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Seaham?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Seaham. We also cover nearby Houghton-le-Spring, Sunderland and Peterlee.

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.

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.

Do electric shutters still work in a power cut?

Electric shutters are fitted with a manual override, usually a hand crank or a release, so the shutter can be opened or closed without power.

What warranty do I get?

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

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
