"As a trusted industry leader, we are committed to providing independently accredited products”

Leading manufacturer of physical security products, industrial shutters and garage doors, SWS UK, have renewed their membership with the police Secured by Design (SBD) initiative.

Established for nearly 40 years and with a workforce of more than 100, SWS UK is proud to be a British manufacturer with a long-established reputation for delivering quality products and unrivalled customer service. Operating from purpose-built premises in the picturesque Lune Valley, Lancashire, the impressive manufacturing base includes a large warehouse, modern offices and a state-of-the-art factory. This, in addition to their London based premises has ensured that SWS UK is well equipped for manufacturing on a large scale. 


With an in-house Research & Development Department, SWS UK continues to refine its product range, ensuring its range of security shutters, retractable gates, window bars and garage doors are always at the forefront of design and technology. In addition to enhancing the existing range, there remains a strong focus on developing exciting new lines. Consequently, SWS UK’s selection of Secured by Design products continues to broaden despite already being one of the most comprehensive ranges available from any security manufacturer.

In 2024, SWS UK once again changed the face of British garage door manufacturing with the introduction of the UK's only fully automated Rollformer. This ground-breaking machine enables the company to manufacturer foam-filled aluminium garage door slats in-house, from premium grade aluminium coil to fully formed garage door curtains. Every curtain is automatically precision-cut and assembled to order, eliminating the need for manual handling and reducing the risk of errors. A behind-the-scenes look at the Rollformer in action can be viewed here.
