Questions about steel roller shutters in Ramsgate
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.
Is the survey free in Ramsgate?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Ramsgate are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for steel roller shutters in Ramsgate?
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. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
