How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for

Electric operation saves the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is a common reason for converting older shutters. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.

Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. 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.

Specification options

  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover

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.

Before you book in Ashington

Do you cover Ashington?

Yes. Ashington (NE63) is within our Northumberland coverage, along with nearby Morpeth, Cramlington and Whitley Bay.

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.

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 you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

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

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
