Our aluminium roller shutters service in Cardiff
Because aluminium curtains are lighter, the motor and box can be smaller, which keeps shutters on houses in Cardiff discreet.
Aluminium does not rust, which helps on exposed elevations in and around Cardiff, and it takes powder-coat and woodgrain finishes well.
Whether your property is in the centre of Cardiff or on its edges, it is included in our South Glamorgan coverage. Neighbouring towns we cover include Penarth (3 miles away), Caerphilly and Barry.

Aluminium roller shutters in Cardiff: questions
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.
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 you cover Cardiff?
Yes, we survey and fit in Cardiff (CF postcodes) as part of our South Glamorgan coverage.
Do I need permission for aluminium roller shutters in Cardiff?
It depends on the property. New external shutters on shopfronts usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need consent. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
