Manual roller shutters in Manchester: 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 Manchester?
Yes. Manchester and the city's postcode districts are part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Manchester?
New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
