How electric roller shutters work, and what to ask for
A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. Where people or vehicles pass under the curtain, a safety edge or photocells stop and reverse it if something is in the way.
Key switches are the most common control for shops because only a key holder can open the shutter from outside. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.
Specification options
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Manual override for power cuts
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Doncaster?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Doncaster. We also cover nearby Rotherham, Pontefract and Chapeltown.
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.
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.
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.
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.
