Security roller shutters in Gateshead: the essentials

Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock.

Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available. 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
  • Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
  • Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Gateshead?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Gateshead. We also cover nearby Wallsend, Hebburn and Jarrow.

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.

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 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.

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.
