How security roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock.
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.

Covering Northamptonshire
We cover Northamptonshire from Northampton to Corby, Kettering and Wellingborough, with 6 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
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.
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.
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.

Your questions answered
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
