Manual roller shutters in Newtown
For shops in Newtown, the shutter is specified around how often it runs, how the frontage looks and what your landlord or council expects.
If your shop in Newtown is on a parade or in a conservation area, the look of the shutter matters as much as the security, so we talk through planning-friendly options such as perforated laths or a box behind the fascia.
Whether your property is in the centre of Newtown or on its edges, it is included in our Powys coverage. We also cover Welshpool, Llandrindod Wells and Aberystwyth, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

Can a manual shutter be motorised later?
In most cases yes, by fitting a motor inside the barrel or a gear motor on the side.
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.
