What to know about steel roller shutters in South Shields

Steel shutters are the usual base for fire-rated and many LPS 1175 rated shutters. 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. Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes.

Options we can specify

  • Powder coating available over galvanising
  • Insulated steel options
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors
  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Manual, crank or electric operation

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 South Shields

Do you cover South Shields?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in South Shields. We also cover nearby Tynemouth, North Shields and Jarrow.

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 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.

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 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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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