Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Chorley

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.

Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.

Features to choose from

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Manual override for power cuts

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 Chorley

Do you cover Chorley?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Chorley and the PR7 district, as part of our coverage across Lancashire.

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.

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.

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.

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.
