How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets. Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes.
Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters. Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays.
Specification options
- Powder coating available over galvanising
- Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
- Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
- Deep guide rails and wind locks for wide openings

Rules in Scotland
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

Questions about steel roller shutters in East Kilbride
Do you cover East Kilbride?
Yes. East Kilbride (G74) is within our Lanarkshire coverage, along with nearby Cambuslang, Rutherglen and Hamilton.
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.
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.
