Steel shutters for properties in Maidstone
We survey and install across Kent, and Maidstone is one of the towns covered. Other towns nearby that we cover include Chatham, Rochester and Gillingham.
For warehouses, depots and workshops in and around Maidstone, the door is sized to the opening, the wind on that elevation and the number of cycles a day.
Each industrial door is specified for its own opening, so a site in Maidstone gets a door matched to its size, use and power supply rather than a single standard.

Frequently asked questions
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.
Will a steel shutter rust?
Galvanising protects the steel, and powder-coating adds another layer. Scratches and coastal air speed up corrosion, so regular cleaning helps.
Do I need permission for steel roller shutters in Maidstone?
It depends on the property. New doors on industrial buildings can need planning permission if they change the elevation, and doors in fire compartment walls must suit the fire strategy. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
Is the survey free in Maidstone?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
