Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Ampthill

Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.

Specification options

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Ampthill?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Ampthill. We also cover nearby Bedford, Dunstable and Leighton Buzzard.

How long do shutter motors last?

With regular servicing a good tube motor typically lasts many years. Heavy daily use, an overweight curtain or misaligned guides shorten its life, which is why servicing matters.

What happens to an electric shutter in a power cut?

Every electric shutter we supply has a manual override, so it can be wound or released by hand until the power returns.

Do I need a new electrical circuit?

Usually not. Most shutters run from a fused spur near the shutter box. If there is no supply nearby, a new circuit is quoted separately and done by a qualified electrician.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
