What to know about manual roller shutters in North Shields

Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed. Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection.

Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.

Specification options

  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Solid or perforated curtains
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains

Covering North Shields and nearby

Jobs in North Shields are planned as part of our Tyne and Wear coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Tynemouth, South Shields and Whitley Bay. 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.

Questions about manual roller shutters in North Shields

Do you cover North Shields?

Yes. North Shields (NE29) is within our Tyne and Wear coverage, along with nearby Tynemouth, South Shields and Whitley Bay.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
