How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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 manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.
Specification options
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- 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 Prescot
Do you cover Prescot?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Prescot and the L34 district, as part of our coverage across Merseyside.
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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
