How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. 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. A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut.
Specification options
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Optional app or smart-home 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.

Before you book in Barnet
Do you cover Barnet?
Yes. Barnet (EN5) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Potters Bar, Borehamwood and Finchley.
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.
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.
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 details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
What warranty do I get?
