Security roller shutters in Harwich: the essentials
Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available.
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.
Specification options
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them

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 Harwich
Do you cover Harwich?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair security roller shutters in Harwich and the CO12 district, as part of our coverage across Essex.
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.
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.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
