Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Kirkby

A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.

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.

Features to choose from

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear

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.

Electric roller shutters: common questions

Do you cover Kirkby?

Yes. Kirkby (L32) is within our Merseyside coverage, along with nearby Maghull, Litherland and Prescot.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

What warranty do I get?

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