Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Walkden
An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. 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.
A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.
Features to choose from
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
