Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Purley
Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor.
Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day.
What's included
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- 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.

Before you book in Purley
Do you cover Purley?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Purley. We also cover nearby Coulsdon, South Croydon and Wallington.
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.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
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.
