Electric roller shutters in Exeter

You do not have to do every window at once: in Exeter we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
On houses in Exeter, the practical questions are where the box can sit, how the shutter will be powered and whether the window is an escape route; the survey answers all three.
We survey and install across Devon, and Exeter is one of the cities covered. Exmouth, Tiverton and Newton Abbot are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.

Electric roller shutters in Exeter: questions
How long do shutter motors last?
A good tubular motor commonly lasts many years in domestic use. If one fails it can be replaced without replacing the whole shutter.
Do electric shutters need a new circuit?
Not always. Many can be fed from an existing circuit through a fused spur; larger groups may need a new circuit. We check at survey and the electrical work is done to BS 7671.
Do you cover Exeter?
Yes, we survey and fit in Exeter (EX1) as part of our Devon coverage.
Do I need permission for electric roller shutters in Exeter?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your local council first.
