What to know about electric roller shutters in St Albans

Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. 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.

A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.

Options we can specify

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

Electric roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover St Albans?

Yes. St Albans (AL1) is within our Hertfordshire coverage, along with nearby Harpenden, Hatfield and Hemel Hempstead.

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.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.

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.
