Electric roller shutters in Gillingham: the essentials

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.

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.

Specification options

  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • 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.

Before you book in Gillingham

Do you cover Gillingham?

Yes. Gillingham (ME7) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Chatham, Rochester and Strood.

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.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
