Manual roller shutters in Swadlincote: the essentials
Push-up shutters use a tensioned spring in the barrel to balance the curtain, so a person can lift it with a pole or by hand. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.
Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.
Options we can specify
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Can be converted to electric later

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Swadlincote?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual roller shutters in Swadlincote and the DE11 district, as part of our coverage across Derbyshire.
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
