What to know about security roller shutters in Borehamwood
Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms. Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides.
Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer. 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
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation
- 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.

Questions about security roller shutters in Borehamwood
Do you cover Borehamwood?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair security roller shutters in Borehamwood and the WD6 district, as part of our coverage across Hertfordshire.
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.
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.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
