How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day. 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. Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed.

Features to choose from

  • Spring-balanced push-up operation
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths

Covering Abingdon and nearby

Jobs in Abingdon are planned as part of our Oxfordshire coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Didcot, Witney and Bicester. 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.

Before you book in Abingdon

Do you cover Abingdon?

Yes. Abingdon (OX14) is within our Oxfordshire coverage, along with nearby Didcot, Witney and Bicester.

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.

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.

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.

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.
