Roller Shutters
Our roller shutters combine robust security with sleek design for commercial and industrial applications. Manufactured in-house, they feature durable steel construction and optional LPS1175 ratings. Ideal for retail units, warehouses, and high-security facilities requiring reliable protection against forced entry.
Steel Doors
Fire-rated and security-rated steel doors provide enhanced protection for critical infrastructure. Available with perforated or glazed options, these doors meet LPS1175 standards. Suitable for prisons, hospitals, and commercial buildings needing both safety compliance and intrusion resistance.
Fire Curtains
Automated fire curtains offer compartmentalisation in large spaces while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Tested to BS EN 13566 standards, they integrate seamlessly into historic buildings like Kensington Palace Orangery. Provide 2-4 hour fire resistance without obstructing architectural features.
High Speed Doors
Engineered for efficiency in high-traffic industrial environments, these doors operate at 2m/s with crash-recovery mechanisms. Maintain temperature control in warehouses while ensuring uninterrupted workflow. Commonly installed in logistics hubs and manufacturing facilities.
Security Gates
Custom-fabricated concertina gates provide perimeter security for outdoor areas. Available in punched or glazed variants, they deter unauthorised access while allowing visibility. Frequently specified for construction sites and temporary event enclosures.

My experience was great - I dealt with the manager in the drawing office who couldnt have been more helpful. The recommendation of an SR3 shutter was spot on. He was clearly a very experienced & knowledgable guy. An absolute pleasure to do business with.

Contacted this company over a week ago and was promised a call back as the lady I spoke to could not give me any information on the products available. Up till today I have not had a reply.

Ive never delt with a ruder person - the MD. He was more interested in knowing how he was going to get paid in cash rather than my job. When a receipt was requested he changed tune and told me to find someone else. Completely unprofessional, stay away from this company! There are plenty of companies out there to sort roller shutters so dont use Armourgaurd!
