What to know about electric roller shutters in Lincoln
Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. 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. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.
Options we can specify
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain

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.

Before you book in Lincoln
Do you cover Lincoln?
Yes. Lincoln (LN2) is within our Lincolnshire coverage, along with nearby Gainsborough, Newark-on-Trent and Retford.
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.
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
