Electric roller shutters in Gloucester: the essentials
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. 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. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.
Specification options
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear

Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Gloucester?
Yes. Gloucester (GL1) is within our Gloucestershire coverage, along with nearby Cheltenham, Stroud and Tewkesbury.
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.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
