ONE-TOUCH OPERATION

How Electric Roller Shutters Work

A tubular motor is housed within the drive axle, concealed within the headbox assembly. Hit the switch and the shutter rolls up or down in the guide rails. Release and it stops wherever you want. No belt, no chain, no exposed mechanism. The motor also provides security. When it stops, the internal brake engages and holds the shutter in place. Licensed electrical wiring and safety certificate included with every install.

WHY ELECTRIC

Why We Only Install Electric Roller Shutters

Effortless daily use

No pulling straps or turning winders. One touch to open, one touch to close. For homes with 6+ shutters, manual isn’t practical.

Stronger security

The motor’s internal brake holds the shutter when closed. Manual shutters with straps don’t have this resistance.

Smart home ready

Phone app, remote, touchscreen, timers, scheduling. None of this works with a manual shutter.

Why Electric Roller Shutters Over Manual

ELECTRIC ONLY

Manual shutters work. But for homes with more than a couple of windows, operating each one by hand with a strap or winder becomes impractical.

The motor adds security (the brake holds the shutter when closed), enables smart home integration, and makes daily use effortless. The cost difference between manual and electric is small relative to the total job. For these reasons, we only install electric and we’ve never had a customer wish they went manual.

Electric Roller Shutter Control Options

CONTROL OPTIONS

Every shutter comes with a rotary wall switch. The smart WiFi upgrade replaces it with a touchscreen and adds a remote and phone app (Smart Life, iOS/Android). Compatible with Google Home and Amazon Alexa. Apple HomeKit not natively supported. If WiFi goes down, touchscreen and remote still work (RF-based). Scheduling is popular: close west-facing shutters at 2pm, open everything at 7am, simulate occupancy on holiday.

“David and the team have done multiple jobs at my house. They automated the roller shutter and installed wifi controllers to all. Quick and quality delivery from the team.”

SET AND FORGET

Electric Roller Shutter Timer and Scheduling

With smart WiFi, set daily schedules per shutter or group. Popular uses: close west-facing at 2pm before the heat, open all at 7am, vary times on holiday to simulate occupancy, close street-facing at sunset for automatic privacy. Override any schedule from the app or wall switch. Schedules run locally so they work even if internet drops.

RETROFIT

Convert Manual Roller Shutters to Electric

If you have manual shutters with a strap or winder, we can typically retrofit a motor into the existing axle. Depends on brand, age, and axle diameter (modern motors are 45mm). We assess during a free on-site assessment. If conversion works, it costs considerably less than replacement. If it doesn’t, we’ll explain why and quote for new shutters.

Licensed Electrical Wiring for Roller Shutters

LICENSED ELECTRICAL

Every electric shutter requires wiring to a dedicated power supply. Licensed electricians are coordinated for every install. Cables are chased into the wall for a concealed, flush finish. For double-storey homes where chasing isn’t possible, electricians use conduits. You receive a Certificate of Electrical Safety when the job is done. The electrical work is warranted for 12 months.

POWER OUTAGES

Electric Roller Shutters During a Power Outage

Shutters stay in whatever position they were in. Closed stays closed, open stays open. The motor brake remains engaged so a closed shutter can’t be pushed up from outside. Your home stays secure. UPS backup available through the electrician if uninterrupted operation matters.

ELECTRIC ROLLER SHUTTERS FAQ

Common questions about electric roller shutters.

Yes. Every shutter we install uses a tubular motor sealed within the drive axle. Electric operation is more secure (the motor brake holds the shutter when closed), more convenient (one-touch control), and enables smart home integration. See our motorised shutters page for the full motor comparison.

Nothing. Same thing. Both terms describe a shutter with a tubular motor inside the axle. People search for both, which is why we have separate pages. The real decision is which motor (SM or Elero) and which control method (switch or smart WiFi). See our motorised page for the full explanation.

Yes, in most cases. We retrofit a tubular motor into the existing axle if the brand, age, and dimensions are compatible (modern motors are 45mm diameter). Cost is considerably less than full replacement. Not all brands are compatible. Book a free assessment and we’ll assess your shutters on-site.

They stay in whatever position they were in. The motor’s internal brake remains engaged, so a closed shutter stays closed and secure. When power returns, everything works normally. For homes where uninterrupted operation is critical, a UPS backup can be arranged through the electrician.

Yes, with the smart WiFi upgrade. The Smart Life app lets you set daily schedules per shutter or group. Popular uses: close west-facing shutters at 2pm before the afternoon heat, open all shutters at 7am, vary times while on holiday to simulate occupancy. Schedules run locally on the controller, so they work even if internet drops. Compatible with Google Home and Alexa.

Between $770 and $1,655 per opening with SM motors. Average around $1,090 incl GST covering supply, custom preparation, installation, and licensed electrical with Certificate of Electrical Safety. Elero motors add $265 per shutter. Smart WiFi upgrade priced separately. See our pricing guide.

DEFINITIONS. “Goods” means roller shutters and any related parts, accessories, remotes, controls, and materials we supply. “Services” means measuring, quoting, custom preparation, installation, electrical work (where included), repairs, and any related labour. “Work” starts when we order materials, commence custom preparation, schedule installation resources, or otherwise begin preparation for your job.

2. QUOTES AND ACCEPTANCE. Quotes are valid for 30 days from the date issued unless stated otherwise in writing. A quote is accepted when you confirm acceptance in writing (including SMS or email) or pay a deposit. Quotes are based on conditions reasonably observed at the time of quoting. If conditions differ, a variation may be required. If there is an obvious error in a quote, we may correct it before installation begins.

The remaining balance is due on completion of installation. If payment is overdue, we may pause work, reschedule, and recover reasonable costs. Payment is accepted by the methods stated on your invoice.

4. VARIATIONS AND ADDITIONAL WORK. Changes requested after accepting the quote will require a written variation for your approval and may affect price and timeline. Extra work outside the agreed scope will be discussed and approved before proceeding. If the work area is not clear on arrival, additional charges may apply — labour charged at $100/hour or $50/shutter depending on what is required.

5. SCHEDULING AND DELAYS. All timeframes are estimates only and may vary due to supplier delays, material availability, workload, weather, or site conditions. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for penalties or indirect losses caused by delays.

6. SITE ACCESS AND CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES. You agree to provide safe, clear access to work areas and power where required; remove obstacles, furniture, blinds, and fragile items; secure pets and children; ensure someone over 18 is on site; and obtain any approvals required (landlord, body corporate, permits). If access is not available or the site is unsafe, we may reschedule and a return visit fee may apply.

7. INSTALLATION AND COSMETIC LIMITS. Installation involves drilling and fixings and may cause minor marks to surfaces. Unless agreed in writing, we do not repaint or refinish surfaces. If we cause damage due to our negligence, we will take reasonable steps to rectify it.

8. ELECTRICAL WORK. Electrical work will be completed by a licensed electrician we organise. A Certificate of Electrical Safety will be provided for all electrical work completed.

9. OWNERSHIP AND RISK. All Goods remain our property until full payment is received and cleared. Risk passes to you once installed. If payment remains unpaid, you agree to provide reasonable access for us to recover unpaid Goods.

10. CANCELLATIONS. Before Work starts: we may retain or charge an amount reflecting reasonable costs incurred. After Work starts: you are responsible for all reasonable costs including materials ordered or custom-prepared and labour already performed. Refunds will be reduced by these costs except where required by law.
