Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in St Austell
A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. A tubular motor sits inside the barrel on most shop and domestic shutters, while larger doors use a direct-drive or chain motor on the end plate.
Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.
Options we can specify
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

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.

Electric roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover St Austell?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in St Austell and the PL25 district, as part of our coverage across Cornwall.
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.
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 open the shutter with my phone?
Yes, many motors can be paired with a smart controller for app or timer control. Ask for it at survey and we will confirm whether your motor supports it.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
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.
