 When it comes to protecting your commercial property—whether it’s a warehouse in Bolton, a storefront in Liverpool, or a distribution unit in Manchester—strong, reliable doors and shutters are a must. But with so many options out there, how do you choose the right fit? What does installation involve? And what support can you expect afterward?

 In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything businesses need to know about commercial door and shutter installation, the types available, what’s included in a service call, and why companies across the North West trust UK Doors & Shutters for complete peace of mind.

 Types of Commercial Doors & Shutters

 Not all doors and shutters are created equal. Your choice should depend on the type of business you run, the level of security needed, and how often the entrance will be used. Here are some of the most popular options for commercial use:

 1. Roller Shutters

 Ideal for: Shops, storage units, warehouses

Benefits: Strong security, compact when open, easy to automate

Roller Shutter Customisation: Choose from solid, perforated, or insulated styles with powder-coated finishes

 2. Sectional Overhead Doors

 Ideal for: Loading bays, industrial units, garages

Benefits: Excellent thermal insulation, space-saving vertical operation

Perfect for businesses requiring frequent vehicle access

 3. High-Speed Doors

 Designed for fast-moving environments like food production, logistics or temperature-sensitive spaces. They help with climate control and operational efficiency.

 4. Fire-Rated Shutters

 Ideal for: Kitchens, factories, high-risk zones

Benefits: Fire containment for 1–4 hours, legal compliance, automatic closure on fire alarms

4. Aluminium & Steel Doors

 Ideal for: Schools, hospitals, offices

Benefits: High durability, professional appearance, available in fire-rated versions

 5. Steel Security Doors

 Heavy-duty doors ideal for back entrances or service areas that require maximum protection against forced entry.

5. Security Grilles & Collapsible Gates

 Ideal for: High-street shops, counters, windows

Benefits: Visual deterrent, allows visibility when closed, compact when open

 Each door or shutter we install is made to measure and designed for maximum longevity, with colour and finish options to match your brand or building style.

 No matter your industry, UK Doors & Shutters provides custom-fit solutions tailored to your building and budget.
