How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds. 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. Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top.
Specification options
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Insulated steel options
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Manual, crank or electric operation
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Powder coating available over galvanising

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.

Questions about steel roller shutters in Ashford (Kent)
Do you cover Ashford (Kent)?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Ashford (Kent). We also cover nearby Faversham, Canterbury and Folkestone.
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.
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.
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.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
