What to know about manual roller shutters in Middlesbrough
Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. 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. 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.
Features to choose from
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Can be converted to electric later
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Solid or perforated curtains
- 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.

Manual roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Middlesbrough?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Middlesbrough. We also cover nearby Billingham, Stockton-on-Tees and Thornaby-on-Tees.
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.
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 details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
