How steel roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets. Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain.

Galvanised finishes are practical but plain, so many shopfronts choose a powder-coated colour. Galvanised steel laths are zinc coated to protect against rust, and can be powder coated on top.

Options we can specify

  • Insulated steel options
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors
  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Powder coating available over galvanising
  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes

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.

Steel roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Leicester?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Leicester. We also cover nearby Oadby, Wigston and Loughborough.

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.

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 you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
