Electric roller shutters in Jarrow: the essentials
Motors are sized to the weight of the curtain, so heavy steel or insulated curtains are paired with a stronger drive. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.
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.
What's included
- Aluminium, steel, perforated or insulated curtains
- Tubular, direct-drive or chain-drive motors sized to the curtain
- Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
- Optional app or smart-home control
- Commissioning and force checks on handover
- Manual override for power cuts

Rules in England

Before you book in Jarrow
Do you cover Jarrow?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Jarrow. We also cover nearby Hebburn, Wallsend and South Shields.
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.
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.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
