Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Carlisle

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection.

Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor.

Options we can specify

  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Spring-balanced push-up operation
  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths

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.

Manual roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Carlisle?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Carlisle. We also cover the rest of Cumbria.

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.

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.

What is the widest manual shutter?

Push-up shutters work best up to about 3m wide. Wider or heavier curtains are normally fitted with a hand crank or a motor so they can be operated safely.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
