How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

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

Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

What's included

  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

Rules in England

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.

Electric roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Carshalton?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Carshalton and the SM5 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.

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 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.

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.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
