Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in West Midlands

Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed. Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day.

Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical. 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.

What's included

  • No power supply or electrician needed
  • Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
  • Can be converted to electric later
  • Bottom-rail and padlock locking options

Covering West Midlands

We cover West Midlands from Birmingham to Coventry, Wolverhampton and Dudley, with 20 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.

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

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 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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
