How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters. Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes.
Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets. Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain.
What's included
- Insulated steel options
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- 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

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Islington?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Islington. We also cover nearby Highbury, Holloway and Camden Town.
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.
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 you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
