How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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.
An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.
Features to choose from
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Optional app or smart-home control

Questions about electric roller shutters in Montrose
Do you cover Montrose?
Yes. Montrose (DD10) is within our Dundee & Angus coverage, along with nearby Arbroath and Forfar.
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.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
