Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Glasgow

An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. Remote fobs, wall switches and timer controls can be combined, so staff can open up from the car or the shutter can close at a set time.

Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. 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.

Features to choose from

  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain

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.

How it works

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Glasgow

Do you cover Glasgow?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Glasgow. We also cover nearby Rutherglen, Bishopbriggs and Bearsden.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
