Electric roller shutters in Newtownabbey: the essentials

Remote fobs, wall switches and timer controls can be combined, so staff can open up from the car or the shutter can close at a set time. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.

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.

What's included

  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

Rules in Northern Ireland

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Electric roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Newtownabbey?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Newtownabbey. We also cover nearby Carrickfergus, Bangor (County Down) and Newtownards.

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.

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.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
