How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light.
Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection.
Features to choose from
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Solid or perforated curtains
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Can be converted to electric later

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.

Manual roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Berkhamsted?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Berkhamsted. We also cover nearby Chesham, Hemel Hempstead and Amersham.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
What details help you quote quickly?
