How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top. Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays.
Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes. Steel resists cutting and impact better than foam-filled aluminium, which suits higher-risk premises.
Options we can specify
- Manual, crank or electric operation
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Wicket doors on industrial doors
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift

Before you book in Chester-le-Street
Do you cover Chester-le-Street?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair steel roller shutters in Chester-le-Street and the DH3 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
