Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in St Neots
Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.
An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.
What's included
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Optional app or smart-home control

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Electric roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover St Neots?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in St Neots and the PE19 district, as part of our coverage across Cambridgeshire.
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.
Are safety edges always needed?
Not always. It depends on the risk assessment: who uses the opening, whether people or vehicles pass under it, and how the shutter is controlled. Hold-to-run key switches on a shopfront often need less than an automatic industrial door.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
