How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
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.
What's included
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains

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.

Questions about manual roller shutters in Melton Mowbray
Do you cover Melton Mowbray?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Melton Mowbray. We also cover nearby Oakham, Loughborough and Oadby.
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.
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.

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
