Manual roller shutters in Bearsden: the essentials

Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical. Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection.

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.

Specification options

  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Spring-balanced push-up operation

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.

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Manual roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Bearsden?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bearsden. We also cover nearby Clydebank, Renfrew and Bishopbriggs.

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.

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 you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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