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.
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 I need permission for electric roller shutters in Godalming?
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.
Is the survey free in Godalming?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Godalming are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
