How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Galvanised finishes are practical but plain, so many shopfronts choose a powder-coated colour. Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top.

Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes. Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays.

Specification options

  • Powder coating available over galvanising
  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Manual, crank or electric operation
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Witham?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair steel roller shutters in Witham and the CM8 district, as part of our coverage across Essex.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
