Choosing steel roller shutters for premises in Dunstable
Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters. Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes.
Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds. Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top.
Specification options
- Manual, crank or electric operation
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Wicket doors on industrial doors
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Insulated steel options

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 Dunstable
Do you cover Dunstable?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair steel roller shutters in Dunstable and the LU6 district, as part of our coverage across Bedfordshire.
Is steel more secure than aluminium?
Generally yes. Steel laths are harder to cut and dent, which is why steel is used for industrial and higher-risk premises. For independently tested resistance, look for an LPS 1175 rating.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
