Frequently asked questions
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.
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 Birmingham?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Birmingham are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for steel roller shutters in Birmingham?
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.
