What to know about electric roller shutters in Burntwood
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. Powered shutters are treated as machinery, so they are commissioned with a risk assessment and safety checks rather than simply wired in.
Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter. Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive.
Features to choose from
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Soft start and stop to reduce wear
- Manual override for power cuts
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains

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.

Before you book in Burntwood
Do you cover Burntwood?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair electric roller shutters in Burntwood and the WS7 district, as part of our coverage across Staffordshire.
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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
