Manual roller shutters in Croydon: questions
Why is my push-up shutter heavy?
The springs that balance the curtain lose tension over time. Re-tensioning or replacing them usually fixes it.
Are manual shutters cheaper?
Yes, to buy and to run, but they cost staff time every day on busy premises.
Do you cover Croydon?
Yes, we survey and fit in Croydon (CR0) as part of our Greater London coverage.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Croydon?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. We recommend checking with your local council first.
