Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Pitsea

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut.

Specification options

  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Optional app or smart-home control

Pitsea and surrounding towns

Jobs in Pitsea are planned as part of our Essex coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Basildon, South Benfleet and Wickford. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

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.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Pitsea

Do you cover Pitsea?

Yes. Pitsea (SS13) is within our Essex coverage, along with nearby Basildon, South Benfleet and Wickford.

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.

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 warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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