How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays. Steel resists cutting and impact better than foam-filled aluminium, which suits higher-risk premises.
Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes. Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds.
Features to choose from
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Insulated steel options
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Manual, crank or electric operation

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 Watford?
Yes. Watford (WD17) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Bushey, Rickmansworth and Borehamwood.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
