Our own brand of roller shutter door motors, distributed direct
Shutter Drive is a South African brand and direct distributor of roller shutter door motors. We specify the range, put our name on it, and supply the installers, door companies and retailers who fit and sell it — direct, at trade pricing quoted per account, with one supplier for the motor and everything that goes with it.
A supply line built for the trade
We are a supplier, not a competitor. We do not chase the installation work our customers rely on — we keep the range, the spares and the pricing straight so the people who fit and sell these motors can get on with it.
Our own brand
Shutter Drive is our range. We choose what goes into it, we stand behind it, and we control the specification — rather than reselling whatever a distributor happens to be pushing this year.
Direct distribution
We supply installers and automation technicians, roller and garage door companies, and hardware and security retailers direct. Open a trade account and we will come back with pricing for your business.
Straight answers on availability
We move fast on popular lines and we will not pretend otherwise. Ask us and you get the real position — what is on the floor today and what the lead time is on anything that is not — before you quote the job.
Trade pricing on volume
Priced per account against what you actually move, rather than a blanket bulk table. If your volume grows, the price follows it. Ask us and we will quote your business properly.
Spares & accessories
Control boxes, battery backup enclosures, push-button switches, safety sensors, remotes and chains — from the same supplier as the motor, so a job never stalls hunting for a part.
Product detail you can sell with
Specifications, images and product sheets supplied for your quotes, your counter and your website. If you are stocking the range, we give you what you need to move it.
Owning the brand changes what we can promise you
It isn't a marketing line. Because Shutter Drive is our own range rather than someone else's, we control the specification, we can price it properly for trade, and we are still the people who answer the phone when you need something.
- Honest lead timesYou get the real availability position before you commit, not an optimistic one. If something is out, we tell you when it lands.
- Spares for what you fittedBecause we control the range, the control box, switch or sensor for a motor you fitted three years ago is still something we can put in your hand.
- Built for load sheddingOur DC models carry battery backup as standard. That was a specification decision, made because of how power works in this country.
- Real trade pricingNo distributor margin to absorb first, so the price we quote an installer is a price they can build a job around.
- One supplier for the whole installMotor, backup box, push switch and safety sensor from the same place, on one invoice.
- A small team you can actually reachNo call centre and no ticket queue. You get someone who knows the product.
What the range covers
Four motors in two lifting capacities, plus the accessories that go with them. AC models for mains-powered doors, DC models with battery backup for sites that can't afford to stop when the power does.
