How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. 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. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.

Features to choose from

  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Optional app or smart-home control

Rules in Scotland

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.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Livingston

Do you cover Livingston?

Yes. Livingston (EH54) is within our Edinburgh & the Lothians coverage, along with nearby Bathgate, Dunfermline and Falkirk.

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 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.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
