Electric roller shutters in Oxford: 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. 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.

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.

What's included

  • Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Key switch, wall switch, remote fob or timer control
  • Optional app or smart-home control
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician

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.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Oxford

Do you cover Oxford?

Yes. Oxford (OX1) is within our Oxfordshire coverage, along with nearby Abingdon, Didcot and Witney.

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 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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
