Manual roller shutters in Blackpool: the essentials
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. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.
Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.
Options we can specify
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Can be converted to electric later
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Spring-balanced push-up operation

Blackpool and surrounding towns
Jobs in Blackpool are planned as part of our Lancashire coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Thornton-Cleveleys, Lytham St Annes and Fleetwood. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.
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 Blackpool?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Blackpool. We also cover nearby Thornton-Cleveleys, Lytham St Annes and Fleetwood.
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.
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.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
