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. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

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.

Specification options

  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Hornchurch

Do you cover Hornchurch?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Hornchurch and the RM11 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
