How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

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.

Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.

What's included

  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

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.

How it works

  1. Tell us about the opening

    Send the postcode, a rough size and a photo if you have one, using the form or a call.

  2. Free survey

    We measure, check the structure, power supply and planning position, and talk through options.

  3. Written fixed price

    You get a written quote with the product, finish, controls and price before anything is ordered.

  4. Made, fitted and handed over

    The shutter is made to measure, fitted, commissioned and handed over with its documents.

Before you book in Failsworth

Do you cover Failsworth?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Failsworth. We also cover nearby Droylsden, Ashton-under-Lyne and Chadderton.

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.
