What to know about electric roller shutters in Thetford
Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in. 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. 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.
Features to choose from
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Thetford
Do you cover Thetford?
Yes. Thetford (IP24) is within our Norfolk coverage, along with nearby Bury St Edmunds, Newmarket and Stowmarket.
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 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 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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
