Manual roller shutters in Colne: the essentials
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.
Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.
What's included
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Can be converted to electric later
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- No power supply or electrician needed
- 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Colne?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Colne. We also cover nearby Nelson, Burnley and Accrington.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
