What to know about electric roller shutters in Belfast

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.

Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.

Features to choose from

  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

Before you book in Belfast

Do you cover Belfast?

Yes. Belfast (BT1) is within our County Antrim coverage, along with nearby Newtownabbey, Lisburn and Newtownards.

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.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
