How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Padlock or bottom-rail locks secure a manual shutter to the ground or guides once it is closed. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition. 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. Push-up operation is best kept to smaller openings; above about 3m wide a crank or motor is normally more practical.
Specification options
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options

Covering West Sussex
We cover West Sussex from Crawley to Worthing, Bognor Regis and Littlehampton, with 9 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.

Before you book in West Sussex
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
