Electric roller shutters in Kirkcaldy: the essentials

An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. 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. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

Specification options

  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover

Questions about electric roller shutters in Kirkcaldy

Do you cover Kirkcaldy?

Yes. Kirkcaldy (KY1) is within our Fife coverage, along with nearby Glenrothes, Edinburgh and Musselburgh.

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.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

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

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
