Frequently asked 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 I need permission for aluminium roller shutters in Ipswich?
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 Ipswich?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
