Steel roller shutters in Rochdale: the essentials
Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters. Steel resists cutting and impact better than foam-filled aluminium, which suits higher-risk premises.
Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters. Galvanised finishes are practical but plain, so many shopfronts choose a powder-coated colour.
Features to choose from
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Wicket doors on industrial doors
- Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin

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.

Steel roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Rochdale?
Yes. Rochdale (OL16) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Heywood, Royton and Middleton.
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.
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.
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.
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.
