What to know about electric roller shutters in Billericay

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. 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.

Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

What's included

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour

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.

Before you book in Billericay

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 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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.

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.
