Custom-made electric roller shutters for Melbourne homes and commercial properties. Enjoy convenient motorised operation with selected remote-control and wall-switch options, professionally measured, supplied and installed to suit your windows, doors and commercial openings.
Convenient motorised roller shutters for everyday use
Electric roller shutters use a motorised operating system instead of manual winding, making them a practical choice for frequently used windows, larger openings and properties where simple everyday operation matters. At 1StopSupply, we provide custom-made electric roller shutters for both residential and selected commercial applications across Melbourne.
Motorised Operation
Open and close suitable roller shutters without manual winding, making everyday operation simpler and more convenient.
Remote-Control Options
Selected motor systems can be operated using a handheld remote, providing convenient control from inside the property.
Wall-Switch Options
Depending on the selected motor and installation setup, wall-switch operation may also be available.
Ideal for Frequent Use
Motorisation is particularly practical for shutters that are opened and closed regularly throughout the week.
Residential & Commercial
Electric shutters can be used on suitable residential windows, sliding-door openings, shopfronts and commercial applications.
Made to Measure
Each roller shutter is specified around the opening dimensions, fixing conditions and selected operating system.
Choose a control setup that suits the way you use your shutters
The exact control configuration depends on the selected motor, shutter system and site conditions. We can recommend a practical setup after reviewing your openings and how frequently the shutters will be used.
Wall-Switch Operation
A fixed wall control provides a straightforward way to raise and lower the shutter from a convenient location inside the property.
Remote-Controlled Shutters
Selected systems can use handheld remote controls, allowing convenient operation without needing to stand beside the window or door.
Multiple Shutter Control
Where compatible with the selected system, control arrangements can be discussed for properties with multiple motorised shutters.
Why choose electric roller shutters?
Manual roller shutters remain practical for some applications, but motorisation can make a major difference where shutters are used frequently, positioned higher on a building or fitted over larger suitable openings.
Instead of operating each shutter manually, an electric system provides a simpler way to raise and lower the shutter as part of your normal daily routine.
Motorised control removes the need to manually wind the shutter whenever you want to open or close it.
Electric operation is often considered for suitable larger windows and selected sliding-door openings where manual operation may be less convenient.
Bedrooms, living areas and street-facing windows can be operated quickly when privacy or light control is needed.
Motorised operation can also make regular opening and closing easier for suitable shopfronts and business openings.
Motorised shutters for windows, homes, doors and businesses
Electric roller shutters can be specified for a range of openings. The most suitable system depends on the opening dimensions, surrounding structure, fixing space and required operation.

Professional installation for motorised shutters
Electric roller shutter installation depends on the selected motor and control configuration. Where a hardwired electrical connection is required, the electrical work must be completed by a licensed electrician. We can coordinate the roller shutter installation and required electrical connection as part of the project where applicable.
Convenience and additional protection in one system
Electric operation does not change the basic purpose of the roller shutter. The shutter still provides a physical barrier over the opening while the motorised system makes daily operation easier.
For customers primarily focused on protecting exposed residential windows, entry openings or shopfronts, our dedicated security roller shutter page explains those applications in more detail.
