Protecting Property with Security Shutters
Professional property security services across Lancashire, delivering compliant, high-quality security solutions for residential and commercial properties.

When it comes to safeguarding property, security shutters remain one of the most effective physical deterrents against unauthorised access and vandalism. At Allin Maintenance, we understand that property protection is not just about compliance but about peace of mind.
Our experienced team supplies, installs and maintains a wide range of security shutters for commercial, industrial and residential properties across Blackpool, Lytham St Annes, Poulton le Fylde, Preston, Lancaster and throughout Lancashire. Each installation is carried out to meet the specific requirements of the site, offering long-term durability and reliable protection.
The Importance of Security Shutters
Security shutters are designed to provide a strong physical barrier while maintaining a professional appearance. In recent years, more landlords, letting agents and commercial operators have recognised that shutters are not only a deterrent to crime but also a practical solution for maintaining property integrity during periods of vacancy or transition.
In the case of properties under LPA receivership or insurance supervision, shutters play a vital role in preventing unauthorised entry, fly-tipping and costly damage.
Allin Maintenance has extensive experience in securing both occupied and vacant sites. We work closely with asset managers, receivers, commercial clients and landlords to identify the best shutter solutions for each location. Our installations are compliant with safety and insurance standards, ensuring every shutter provides security and reliability without compromising the property’s appearance.
Choosing the Right Shutter for Your Property
Different properties require different types of security shutters. Retail premises, warehouses and residential blocks all have unique considerations when it comes to access, appearance and insurance requirements.
Our specialists begin each project with a detailed assessment of the property and its surroundings to determine the ideal specification. Factors considered include:
- Door or window dimensions
- Exposure to weather
- Level of security risk
- Ease of operation
For commercial and industrial units, steel roller shutters are often recommended due to their strength and endurance. Aluminium or perforated designs may be more suitable for shopfronts where visibility is desirable.
Manual, chain-operated or electric mechanisms can be selected according to user preference and budget. For residential or smaller applications, lightweight but reinforced designs ensure both practicality and protection. Every installation is completed to the highest standard, ensuring smooth operation and a neat finish.
Installation and Maintenance with Allin Maintenance
Our service extends beyond supply and installation. We provide full maintenance and repair programmes to ensure shutters remain fully functional and compliant.
Over time, exposure to weather and regular use can cause wear or mechanical issues that compromise effectiveness. Our engineers carry out:
- Scheduled servicing
- Lubrication and alignment checks

We also offer emergency repairs for damaged or jammed shutters to minimise downtime and restore protection quickly.
Reliability is critical for commercial clients who depend on operational shutters for daily business.
