How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain. Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters.

Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds. Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters.

Specification options

  • Manual, crank or electric operation
  • Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
  • Powder coating available over galvanising
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Insulated steel options

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 Harpenden?

Yes. Harpenden (AL5) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby St Albans, Luton and Hemel Hempstead.

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.

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 you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

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.
