Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Barnstaple
Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock.
Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms. Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available.
What's included
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters

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 Barnstaple?
Yes. Barnstaple (EX31) is within our Devon coverage, along with nearby Bideford.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
