How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.
Hand-crank shutters use a gearbox and handle, which makes heavier or wider curtains manageable without a motor. 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
- Hand-crank gearbox for wider or heavier curtains
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- No power supply or electrician needed
- Solid or perforated curtains
- Can be converted to electric later

Covering Bradford and nearby
Jobs in Bradford are planned as part of our West Yorkshire coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Shipley, Pudsey and Cleckheaton. 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Bradford?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bradford. We also cover nearby Shipley, Pudsey and Cleckheaton.
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.
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.
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.
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.
