How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.
Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.
Features to choose from
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Can be converted to electric later
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Before you book in Slough
Do you cover Slough?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Slough. We also cover nearby Windsor, Maidenhead and Gerrards Cross.
Why is my manual shutter so heavy to lift?
Usually the spring in the barrel has lost tension or the guides need cleaning. A shutter engineer can re-tension the spring, which is far cheaper than replacing the shutter.
Can I add a motor later?
Yes, in many cases. If the curtain, barrel and box are in good order, a tube motor and key switch can be fitted. See our manual-to-electric conversion service.
Are manual shutters less secure than electric ones?
Not inherently. Security comes from the curtain, guides and locks. Manual shutters are secured with bottom-rail locks or padlocks, while electric shutters are held down by the motor and locks.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
