How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.
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. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.
Options we can specify
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Manual override for power cuts
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain

Rules in England

Questions about electric roller shutters in Oadby
Do you cover Oadby?
Yes. Oadby (LE2) is within our Leicestershire coverage, along with nearby Wigston, Market Harborough and Loughborough.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
