Choosing manual roller shutters for premises in Smethwick
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.
Manual shutters are common on kiosks, serving hatches, garages and outbuildings where daily use is light. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.
Specification options
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Can be converted to electric later
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Powder coating to a RAL colour

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 Smethwick?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Smethwick. We also cover nearby West Bromwich, Halesowen and Wednesbury.
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 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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
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.
