What to know about electric roller shutters in York

An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

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

  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Optional app or smart-home control

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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in York

Do you cover York?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in York and the YO1 district, as part of our coverage across North Yorkshire.

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.

Are safety edges always needed?

Not always. It depends on the risk assessment: who uses the opening, whether people or vehicles pass under it, and how the shutter is controlled. Hold-to-run key switches on a shopfront often need less than an automatic industrial door.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
