Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Hove
Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.
A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.
Specification options
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Manual override for power cuts
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear

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 Hove?
Yes. Hove (BN3) is within our East Sussex coverage, along with nearby Burgess Hill, Worthing and Haywards Heath.
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.
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.
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.
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.
