Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Maldon

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. 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. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.

What's included

  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • No power supply or electrician needed

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 Maldon

Do you cover Maldon?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual roller shutters in Maldon and the CM9 district, as part of our coverage across Essex.

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.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
