Manual roller shutters in Tyne and Wear: questions
Are manual shutters cheaper?
Yes, to buy and to run, but they cost staff time every day on busy premises.
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.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Tyne and Wear?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. We recommend checking with your local council first.
