Security roller shutters in Sunderland: the essentials
Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock. 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. Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises.
What's included
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks

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 Sunderland
Do you cover Sunderland?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Sunderland. We also cover nearby Seaham, Washington and Houghton-le-Spring.
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.
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.
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 you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
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.
