What to know about steel roller shutters in Gwent
Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays. Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters. 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. Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets.
Features to choose from
- Manual, crank or electric operation
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Insulated steel options

Covering Gwent
We cover Gwent from Newport to Cwmbran, Pontypool and Ebbw Vale, with 5 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Wales, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in Wales
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly 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 homes in Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.

Before you book in Gwent
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
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.
