How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in. 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. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.
Specification options
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Highbury?
Yes. Highbury (N5) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Islington, Holloway and Stamford Hill.
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.
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.
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.
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.
