How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. 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.

Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.

What's included

  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Optional app or smart-home control

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

How it works

  4. We fit and commission

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

Your questions answered

Do you cover Bournemouth?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Bournemouth and the BH1 district, as part of our coverage across Dorset.

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.

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.

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.
