Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Longton
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.
Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms.
Options we can specify
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Longton?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Longton. We also cover nearby Newcastle-under-Lyme, Kidsgrove and Stafford.
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.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
