How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

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. Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside.

Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.

What's included

  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear

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.

Before you book in Northampton

Do you cover Northampton?

Yes. Northampton (NN1) is within our Northamptonshire coverage, along with nearby Wellingborough, Daventry and Rushden.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
