What to know about manual roller shutters in Morpeth

Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed. Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light.

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. 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.

Specification options

  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Can be converted to electric later

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 shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Morpeth?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Morpeth. We also cover nearby Ashington, Cramlington and Whitley Bay.

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.

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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
