About Us

James Robertshaw was founded in 1860 by our namesake Mr James Robertshaw of Collyhurst, Manchester.

Originally we manufactured Victorian box awnings with woodwork carved by hand, but were best known for the Spring Roller system, patented in 1908 and produced until 1954.

The business stayed within the Robertshaw family until the tragic death of James’ grandson William Lancelot Robertshaw in 1960 and was then bought by production manager, Arthur Harrison, who relocated the company to Farnworth, Bolton.

Arthur owned and ran the business until ill health forced retirement in 1978. Arthur’s son-in-law, Nigel Sharrock, who also worked within the business, assumed the role of Managing Director throughout Arthur’s illness and subsequent passing in 1980 and remained the team’s MD until 2017.

Today James Robertshaw is still a family owned business run by Nigel’s wife, Lesley and son Matthew. In 2010 after 50 years at our Farnworth home, we re-located to our current, modern facility in Horwich, Bolton.

All products are designed, manufactured and exhibited within our production facility and on-site Customer Centre. With clients ranging from independent bars to national brands; architects, building contractors, residential clients and the blind trade; James Robertshaw has the creativity, expertise and knowledge to make a visible difference to any project.
