Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Chadderton
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. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.
Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. 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.
Specification options
- Manual override for power cuts
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Electric roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Chadderton?
Yes. Chadderton (OL9) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Oldham, Royton and Middleton.
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
