How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Steel resists cutting and impact better than foam-filled aluminium, which suits higher-risk premises. 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.

Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain. Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays.

Options we can specify

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

Covering Glasgow & Dunbartonshire

We cover Glasgow & Dunbartonshire from Glasgow to Bearsden, Clydebank and Bishopbriggs, with 4 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Scotland, and we check the position at survey.

Rules in Scotland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

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.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.

Steel roller shutters: common questions

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 steel shutters noisy?

Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium. If noise matters, insulated double-skin laths and a well-adjusted motor help.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

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.
