How security roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms. Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts.

Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer. 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

  • Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
  • 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
  • Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises

Rules in England

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Before you book in Margate

Do you cover Margate?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair security roller shutters in Margate and the CT9 district, as part of our coverage across Kent.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
