How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters. Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top. Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain.
Galvanised finishes are practical but plain, so many shopfronts choose a powder-coated colour. Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds.
Options we can specify
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Wicket doors on industrial doors
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Insulated steel options
- Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes

Covering Ayrshire
We cover Ayrshire from Kilmarnock to Ayr and Irvine, with 3 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Scotland, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in Scotland
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.
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 Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.

Questions about steel roller shutters in Ayrshire
Are steel shutters noisy?
Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium. If noise matters, insulated double-skin laths and a well-adjusted motor help.
Will a steel shutter rust?
Galvanising protects the steel, and powder coating adds a further layer. Scratches and damage should be touched up so moisture cannot reach bare metal.
Can a steel shutter have a door in it?
Yes, industrial steel shutters can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
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.
