How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

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. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.

Options we can specify

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Margate

Do you cover Margate?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Margate. We also cover nearby Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Deal.

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

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.
