How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.
Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed. 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.
Features to choose from
- Can be converted to electric later
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Bexhill-on-Sea?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bexhill-on-Sea. We also cover nearby Hastings, Hailsham and Eastbourne.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
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.
