Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Hornchurch

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

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor.

Features to choose from

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

Do you cover Hornchurch?

Yes. Hornchurch (RM11) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Romford, Dagenham and Becontree.

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.

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.

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.

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.
