What to know about manual roller shutters in Rochdale

Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.

Push-up shutters use a tensioned spring in the barrel to balance the curtain, so a person can lift it with a pole or by hand. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.

Features to choose from

  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Spring-balanced push-up operation
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Solid or perforated 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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Rochdale?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Rochdale. We also cover nearby Heywood, Royton and Middleton.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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