How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed. Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection.
Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed. Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light.
Specification options
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- 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.

Before you book in Leigh
Do you cover Leigh?
Yes. Leigh (WN7) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Atherton, Tyldesley and Golborne.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
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.
