Electric roller shutters in Durham: 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. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.

Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.

What's included

  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Durham?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Durham and the DH1 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.

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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
