Steel roller shutters in Carrickfergus: the essentials

Steel resists cutting and impact better than foam-filled aluminium, which suits higher-risk premises. 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. Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters.

Options we can specify

  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
  • Manual, crank or electric operation
  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Powder coating available over galvanising
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors

Rules in Northern Ireland

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.

Questions about steel roller shutters in Carrickfergus

Do you cover Carrickfergus?

Yes. Carrickfergus (BT38) is within our County Antrim coverage, along with nearby Newtownabbey, Bangor (County Down) and Larne.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
