Common questions
What's the difference between roller and security shutters?
All security shutters are roller shutters, but not all roller shutters are security-rated. Security shutters use heavier-gauge lath (typically 22 gauge or thicker), reinforced end-locks, and Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) ratings (SR1–SR4) for insurance-grade physical security.
Will security shutters lower my insurance premium?
Often yes — most commercial insurers offer discounts for LPCB-rated shutters fitted by approved installers. Check with your broker before specifying; some require SR2 minimum, others SR3.
