What to know about security roller shutters in Welwyn Garden City
Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available. A powder-coated finish in a RAL colour lets the shutter match a shopfront or cladding instead of standing out in bare metal.
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.
What's included
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box

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.

Security roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Welwyn Garden City?
Yes. Welwyn Garden City (AL8) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Hatfield, Hertford and St Albans.
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.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
