Frequently Asked Questions

What are the control options

Control Options

Manual Options – Spring Loaded with a key.

Motorized Options – 240 Volt Electric motor, with either a rotary switch or remote control, manual override options available, UPS.

Classic Roller Shutters recommends the use of Photo Safety Cells, a Safety Brake and/or a Safety Edge when installing automated roller shutters over openings and doorways. Especially when the roller shutter is not in full view of the operator (e.g. when using a remote control or wall switch positioned away from the roller shutter and out of view). When using a wall switch, we recommend a spring return switch/Deadman switch

Testimonials

Can highly recommend this company and all the staff involved from the office with the initial phone call to the quote being carried out and then install happening it was far from stressful as previously experienced with another large company. Very easy to deal with and high quality products and workmanship couldn’t be happier. Very professional and no silly sales tactics used to win you over and better yet very affordable. Can’t wait for all the family and friends to see so I can recommend!

I purchased 8 roller shutters 4.5 years ago and recently purchased 3 security doors. I have never had any issues with the roller shutters and have no doubt the same will apply to the security doors. The roller shutters still look great. The security doors, one with a pet door, not only look great but are solid with triple lock. I dealt with Jackie, Shannen and Tim whose professionalism was outstanding. All my questions were answered and when they needed to come to the house they were here when they said they would be. I highly recommend this fantastic family business. Why go anywhere else when you can go straight to the best. Thank you Classic Roller Shutters you made this process stress free. Thank you.

We have been very pleased with the way your company works from the lady who we first spoke to, to the guy who talked to us about your roller shutters & ziptrak blinds – not pushy just a pleasure to have in our home. He told us all we needed to know without the frills. The installer was also very pleasant and worked well. We are happy to have dealt with your company and will pass on our favourable comments. Good luck.

Mr & Mrs Magesdorf, Seaford

My husband and I are thrilled with the results and very impressed with your company and your professionalism. Your salesman was great. He answered all questions and was informative. Your installers completed the job and they have done a wonderful job. Your electrician was great also and accommodated a small change without hesitation. The job was done professionally and our home was left tidy. Care was taken by all which was much appreciated. Even your receptionist was very friendly and helpful. All these people you employ are a credit to your company.

Mr & Mrs Davis, Paradise

I've been looking for roller shutters for over two years and finally purchased them. Why did I choose classic shutters? tell you why. had at least 12 quotes and just didn’t trust what I was told. reason, I’ve learned threes a lot more to shutters than the average person thinks. just like solar panels, you can get cheap inferior parts and people should be aware of that. also these 50 % off the price deals come in spinner they add that on the price to begin with, its a con. in the end you get what you pay for, that is good quality shutter and that is exactly what I got from Classic. asked all the right questions and they gave me all the right answers – as I knew them from studying them for 2 years. also that goes along way with me, contractors who actually clean up behind them, that’s great. friendly staff, and they were installed within a week. couldn’t be more impressed and ill recommend them to anyone who wants roller shutters and believe me, that comes from a person who does his homework.
