How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. 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. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.
Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. 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.
Features to choose from
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

Covering County Armagh
We cover County Armagh from Craigavon to Portadown, Lurgan and Armagh, with 4 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Northern Ireland, and we check the position at survey.
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.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations, by a qualified electrician. Northern Ireland has its own building regulations, and any building control requirement for the work is confirmed with your council.
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Northern Ireland planning permission for an external shopfront shutter is decided by your local council, which took over most planning decisions in 2015, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Design guidance generally favours shutters that keep the frontage visible.

Before you book in County Armagh
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.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
