What to know about manual roller shutters in Cowes

Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement. Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor.

Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical. Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day.

Specification options

  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Spring-balanced push-up operation

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 Cowes?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual roller shutters in Cowes and the PO31 district, as part of our coverage across Isle of Wight.

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.

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 warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
