What to know about steel roller shutters in Canterbury
Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top. Deep steel guide rails and wind locks keep wide steel curtains in place in high winds.
Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays. Galvanised finishes are practical but plain, so many shopfronts choose a powder-coated colour.
Specification options
- Insulated steel options
- Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Manual, crank or electric operation
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Wicket doors on industrial doors

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.

Before you book in Canterbury
Do you cover Canterbury?
Yes. Canterbury (CT1) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Whitstable, Herne Bay and Faversham.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
