What to know about electric roller shutters in Weymouth

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.

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.

Features to choose from

  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

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.

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

Questions about electric roller shutters in Weymouth

Do you cover Weymouth?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Weymouth and the DT3 district, as part of our coverage across Dorset.

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 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.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
