How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. 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. A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut.
What's included
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Manual override for power cuts
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

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.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Faversham
Do you cover Faversham?
Yes. Faversham (ME13) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Whitstable, Sittingbourne and Canterbury.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
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.
