What to know about electric roller shutters in Acton

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. A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut.

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.

Features to choose from

  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control

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.

  3. Written fixed price

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

Before you book in Acton

Do you cover Acton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Acton and the W3 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.

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.

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.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
