How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays. Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds.

Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters. Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters.

What's included

  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors
  • Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
  • Manual, crank or electric operation
  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin

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.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Reading?

Yes. Reading (RG1) is within our Berkshire coverage, along with nearby Wokingham, Crowthorne and Yateley.

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.

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.

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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
