Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Leigh

Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. 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.

Options we can specify

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains

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.

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 Leigh

Do you cover Leigh?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Leigh. We also cover nearby Atherton, Tyldesley and Golborne.

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 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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
