How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for

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

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.

Features to choose from

  • Powder coating available over galvanising
  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Insulated steel options
  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors
  • Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings

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 Swanley

Do you cover Swanley?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair steel roller shutters in Swanley and the BR8 district, as part of our coverage across Kent.

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.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
