How To Measure Roller Shutters
Making sure you have the correct measurements for a roller shutter isn’t as difficult as it sounds, but there are some key things to consider before getting a quote. This guide will help you figure out whether a shutter will work in the space you have available, and how to make sure you have all the information you will need so you can get an accurate quote.
​
Step 1: Measure the width and the height of the opening
Most shutter suppliers will work on “clear opening” width and height. This is the clear space between the brickwork and from floor to ceiling that you can walk through. Most suppliers will ask for measurements in millimetres. The more accurate you are at this stage the more likely your price is to be accurate, so it is worth getting the tape measure out.
​
Step 2: Measure the either side of the opening on the side the shutter will be installed.
A key thing to consider is the space around the opening where the shutter will sit. If your shutter is going to be installed on the face of the opening then you’ll need to make sure there is space for the guide rails that support the shutter. It might sound obvious, but often guttering, piping, and external sockets can get in the way and will need to be moved. Usually a shutter won’t need any more that 65mm either side of the opening, but for larger installations you can expect to lose over 100mm of space.
Step 3: Measure the space above the opening
One of the main factors that can determine whether a shutter will or won’t work in the space is the availability of head room above the opening. The roller shutter needs space to roll up into when it’s closed, so if there isn’t room above the opening then alternative options may need to be considered, or the shutter may have to be installed within the reveal of the opening.
​
Step 4: Double check your measurements and supply photos/drawings if possible.
The more accurate you are at this stage the more likely your price is to be accurate, also supply photos or drawings of the windows that are to be protected and Fireshutters will provide the best value fire shutter quotation.
