What to know about electric roller shutters in Thamesmead

A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.

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.

Options we can specify

  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

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.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Thamesmead

Do you cover Thamesmead?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Thamesmead and the SE28 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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

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.
