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.
Can my manual shutters be made electric?
Usually yes. A motor can be fitted inside the existing barrel, as long as the shutter is in reasonable condition.
Do I need permission for electric roller shutters in Ashton-under-Lyne?
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.
