What to know about electric roller shutters in Altrincham

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.

A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.

Features to choose from

  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • 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.

Before you book in Altrincham

Do you cover Altrincham?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Altrincham. We also cover nearby Sale, Urmston and Stretford.

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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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