How security roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down. A powder-coated finish in a RAL colour lets the shutter match a shopfront or cladding instead of standing out in bare metal.
The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning. Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides.
Specification options
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks

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.

Questions about security roller shutters in Torquay
Do you cover Torquay?
Yes. Torquay (TQ2) is within our Devon coverage, along with nearby Paignton, Newton Abbot and Exmouth.
How long does a roller shutter take to fit?
Most single shopfront shutters are fitted in a day once they have been made. Wider frontages, steel-framed openings or new power supplies can add time, and we confirm the installation day with your quote.
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.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
