What to know about electric roller shutters in Bolton

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. 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 manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.

What's included

  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

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 Bolton?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bolton. We also cover nearby Farnworth, Westhoughton and Radcliffe.

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 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 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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
