How security roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down.
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.
Specification options
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them

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.

Questions about security roller shutters in Colne
Do you cover Colne?
Yes. Colne (BB8) is within our Lancashire coverage, along with nearby Nelson, Burnley and Accrington.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
