Frequently asked questions
Are electric shutters noisy?
Tubular motors are quiet; most of the sound you hear is the laths rolling, which is a soft whirr.
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 you cover Herne Bay?
Yes. Herne Bay and the CT6 postcode district are part of our coverage across Kent.
Do I need permission for electric roller shutters in Herne Bay?
External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
