Questions about aluminium roller shutters in Belfast
What colours can I have?
White, anthracite, black, cream, silver, brown and woodgrains as standard, plus RAL colours to order.
Are aluminium shutters strong enough for a shop?
Extruded aluminium shutters are very robust and suit many shops; very wide or high-risk openings may still be better in steel.
Do I need permission for aluminium roller shutters in Belfast?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need consent. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in Belfast?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Belfast are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
