Choosing electric roller shutters for premises in Oxfordshire
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. An electrician connects the shutter to a fused spur, and the work is done to BS 7671, the wiring regulations.
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. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.
Features to choose from
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Optional app or smart-home control

Covering Oxfordshire
We cover Oxfordshire from Oxford to Banbury, Abingdon and Bicester, with 6 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
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.
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.
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Oxfordshire
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.
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
