Electric roller shutters in Bicester: the essentials
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. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.
Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.
Features to choose from
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Manual override for power cuts
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Powder coating to a RAL colour

Rules in England
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.

Electric roller shutters: common questions
Do you cover Bicester?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Bicester. We also cover nearby Banbury, Aylesbury and Witney.
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.
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.
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.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
