What to know about electric roller shutters in Brighton
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. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.
Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.
Options we can specify
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Manual override for power cuts
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Brighton
Do you cover Brighton?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Brighton and the BN2 district, as part of our coverage across East Sussex.
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.
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 your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
