Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Golborne
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. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.
Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. 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.
What's included
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Manual override for power cuts

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.

Before you book in Golborne
Do you cover Golborne?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Golborne and the WA3 district, as part of our coverage across Greater Manchester.
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.
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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
