How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.
Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor.
Specification options
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Can be converted to electric later
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Powder coating to a RAL colour

Rules in Scotland
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.

Questions about manual roller shutters in Greenock
Do you cover Greenock?
Yes. Greenock (PA16) is within our Renfrewshire & Inverclyde coverage, along with nearby Helensburgh, Dunoon and Clydebank.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
