How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
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. Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters.
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.
Specification options
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Middlesbrough?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Middlesbrough and the TS1 district, as part of our coverage across North Yorkshire.
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.
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.
