How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for

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

Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.

Specification options

  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Can be converted to electric later

Rules in Scotland

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Kirkcudbright?

Yes. Kirkcudbright (DG6) is within our Dumfries & Galloway coverage, along with nearby Newton Stewart.

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.

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.

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.
