Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Stevenage

Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical. Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor.

Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.

What's included

  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths

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

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  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.

Before you book in Stevenage

Do you cover Stevenage?

Yes. Stevenage (SG1) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Hitchin, Letchworth Garden City and Welwyn Garden City.

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.

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.

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.

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.
