Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Acton

Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock.

Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides.

Options we can specify

  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
  • Key switch, remote control or timer operation
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
  • Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths

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.

How it works

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Security roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Acton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair security roller shutters in Acton and the W3 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

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.
