What to know about electric roller shutters in Newtownards
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. 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.
Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.
Specification options
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain

Questions about electric roller shutters in Newtownards
Do you cover Newtownards?
Yes. Newtownards (BT22) is within our County Down coverage, along with nearby Belfast, Carrickfergus and Newtownabbey.
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 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.
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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
