Fitting electric roller shutters in Bournemouth
Bournemouth is part of our Dorset coverage, and addresses in the BH1 postcode district are covered in the same way as the rest of Dorset. Christchurch, Poole and New Milton are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.
Where a window in Bournemouth has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.
Bedroom shutters in Bournemouth can run on a timer, closing at night and opening in the morning without anyone touching a switch.

Questions about electric roller shutters in Bournemouth
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 Bournemouth?
Yes. Bournemouth and the BH1 postcode district are part of our coverage across Dorset.
Do I need permission for electric roller shutters in Bournemouth?
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.
