Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Hereford
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. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.
Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.
What's included
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Optional app or smart-home control
- 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 Hereford?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Hereford. We also cover nearby Ross-on-Wye, Leominster and Malvern.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
