Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Ilford

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

Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.

What's included

  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain

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.

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.

Electric roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Ilford?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Ilford. We also cover nearby Barking, Becontree and Leytonstone.

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.

Can I open the shutter with my phone?

Yes, many motors can be paired with a smart controller for app or timer control. Ask for it at survey and we will confirm whether your motor supports it.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

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.
