How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor. Aluminium curtains are often chosen for push-up shutters because they are lighter to lift every day.

Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.

Options we can specify

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

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 Coventry?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Coventry. We also cover nearby Kenilworth, Bedworth and Nuneaton.

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.

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.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
