Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Uxbridge

Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.

Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day.

Specification options

  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour

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.

How it works

  2. We survey the opening

    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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Uxbridge?

Yes. Uxbridge (UB8) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Ruislip, Hayes and Gerrards Cross.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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

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.
