Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Canary Wharf

An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. 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.

Options we can specify

  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Optional app or smart-home control

Covering Canary Wharf and nearby

Jobs in Canary Wharf are planned as part of our Greater London coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Bow, Canning Town and Greenwich. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Canary Wharf

Do you cover Canary Wharf?

Yes. Canary Wharf (E14) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Bow, Canning Town and Greenwich.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.

What warranty do I get?

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