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

Rules in England
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.

Steel roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Preston?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Preston. We also cover nearby Leyland, Chorley and Blackburn.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
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.
