Do aluminium shutters fade?
Quality powder-coated and foiled finishes hold their colour well; darker colours in full sun can fade slowly over many years.

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 Folkestone?
New external shutters on shopfronts usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need consent. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
