How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed. 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. Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light.
Options we can specify
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Can be converted to electric later
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Solid or perforated curtains

Covering Seaford and nearby
Jobs in Seaford are planned as part of our East Sussex coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Eastbourne, Hailsham and Hove. 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Seaford?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual roller shutters in Seaford and the BN25 district, as part of our coverage across East Sussex.
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
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.
