Electric roller shutters in Formby: the essentials

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

Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. 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.

Options we can specify

  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Electric roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Formby?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Formby. We also cover nearby Maghull, Southport and Bootle.

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.

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 warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
