Our steel roller shutters service in Reading
Reading is part of our Berkshire coverage, and addresses in the RG1 postcode district are covered in the same way as the rest of Berkshire. Other towns nearby that we cover include Wokingham, Crowthorne and Yateley.
For warehouses, depots and workshops in and around Reading, the door is sized to the opening, the wind on that elevation and the number of cycles a day.
Where several doors on one site in Reading need work, they can be surveyed together and put on a single maintenance schedule afterwards.

Frequently asked questions
Can steel shutters be painted?
They are best powder-coated in the factory; site painting rarely lasts on a moving curtain.
Is steel or aluminium better?
Steel is stronger for the money and suits big openings; aluminium is lighter, corrosion-resistant and neater, and suits homes, shops and coastal sites.
