Steel roller shutters in West Glamorgan: the essentials

Steel curtains are heavier, so they are paired with stronger motors, springs or crank gearboxes. Industrial steel doors can include a wicket door so people can enter without raising the whole curtain. Single-skin steel is noisier than insulated aluminium, which matters on mixed residential streets.

Steel is the common choice for garages, lock-ups, plant rooms and loading bays. Steel shutters can be insulated with a double-skin lath where heat loss through the opening matters.

Specification options

  • Stronger motors, springs and gearboxes
  • Bottom-rail locks and anti-lift
  • Manual, crank or electric operation
  • Galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
  • Wicket doors on industrial doors
  • Insulated steel options

Covering West Glamorgan

We cover West Glamorgan from Swansea to Neath and Gorseinon, with 3 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Wales, and we check the position at survey.

Rules in Wales

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.

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.

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.

Steel roller shutters: common questions

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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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