Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Dronfield

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.

Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.

Features to choose from

  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Spring-balanced push-up operation
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour

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.

Questions about manual roller shutters in Dronfield

Do you cover Dronfield?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Dronfield. We also cover nearby Chesterfield, Sheffield and Staveley.

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.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
