How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light.

Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.

What's included

  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Spring-balanced push-up operation
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths

Covering Exeter and nearby

Jobs in Exeter are planned as part of our Devon coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Exmouth, Tiverton and Newton Abbot. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

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 Exeter

Do you cover Exeter?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual roller shutters in Exeter and the EX2 district, as part of our coverage across Devon.

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.

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 get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

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.
