Choosing steel roller shutters for premises in Lerwick
Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top. 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. Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets.
Features to choose from
- Wicket doors on industrial doors
- Insulated steel options
- Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings

Rules in Scotland
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 Lerwick?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair steel roller shutters in Lerwick and the ZE1 district, as part of our coverage across Highlands & Islands.
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 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.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
