Design & Customisation

The standard colours for our Compact Aluminium Roller Shutters are White (RAL 9016), Cream (RAL 1015), Brown (RAL 8014), and Black (RAL 9005).

We also offer powder coating in a wider range of colours, categorised as follows:

   Band A – Popular colours we regularly stock. These incur a small additional cost.

   Band B – Less common colours we may have in stock. These come with a slightly higher additional cost.

   Band C – Special order colours not typically stocked but available quickly without affecting lead times. These colours are priced at a premium.

In addition, we can powder coat shutters in any BS or RAL colour. These are quoted on a Price Per Application basis and may extend lead times slightly.
