Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Peebles
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. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.
Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical. Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement.
Features to choose from
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Spring-balanced push-up operation

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.

Before you book in Peebles
Do you cover Peebles?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Peebles. We also cover nearby Musselburgh, Edinburgh and Livingston.
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.
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 you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
What details help you quote quickly?
