Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Burton upon Trent
Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.
Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. 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
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Solid or perforated 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 Burton upon Trent?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Burton upon Trent. We also cover nearby Swadlincote, Derby and Lichfield.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
