Electric roller shutters in Worcestershire: the essentials

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. A manual override, usually a crank or a release cord, means the shutter can still be opened in a power cut. 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. Smart controllers can add app or timer control to many existing motors without replacing the shutter.

Specification options

  • Fused spur connection by a qualified electrician
  • Soft start and stop to reduce wear
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour
  • Safety edge and photocells where the risk assessment needs them
  • Commissioning and force checks on handover
  • Manual override for power cuts

Covering Worcestershire

We cover Worcestershire from Worcester to Redditch, Kidderminster and Malvern, with 8 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.

Rules in England

Safety of powered shutters

Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

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.

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.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Worcestershire

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.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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