How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical.

Features to choose from

  • Can be converted to electric later
  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains

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.

Manual roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Croydon?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Croydon. We also cover nearby South Croydon, Wallington and Carshalton.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

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.
