What to know about security roller shutters in Dover
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.
Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available. Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer.
What's included
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them

Dover and surrounding towns
Dover sits in Kent, roughly 36 miles from Maidstone. Whether the job is in the CT16 district or nearby Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury, the survey and quote work the same way.
Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Security roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Dover?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Dover. We also cover nearby Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
