Ute Electric Roller Shutters for Security and Convenience
JTM Auto’s ute electric roller shutters make opening and closing your ute tub faster and more convenient. Operated using a remote control, the motorised system allows the roller shutter to automatically retract or extend without requiring manual handling. This makes it easier to access tools, work equipment, camping gear and everyday cargo.
Interlocking aluminium slats roll neatly into the front-mounted canister, allowing the tub to be opened when carrying larger items and securely covered when additional protection is needed. An integrated obstruction sensor helps detect objects in the shutter’s path, supporting safer and smoother operation.
Combining practical cargo protection with contemporary styling, an electric ute roller shutter is suitable for tradies, off-road enthusiasts, touring setups and drivers looking to improve everyday tub security.

FAQs
How does the electric roller shutter get power?
The shutter is powered by the ute’s electrical system through a plug-and-play wiring harness connected to the vehicle’s power supply. This allows the motor to open and close the shutter without requiring a separate rechargeable battery.
Is the electrical wiring waterproof?
The electric roller shutter’s wiring and electrical components are designed for outdoor automotive use and are protected against normal exposure to rain and moisture when installed correctly. The plug-and-play harness uses protected connections, while the motor and control components are housed to support weather-resistant operation.
Can an electric roller shutter be opened manually if the battery goes flat?
Emergency operation varies between brands and models. Check the individual product instructions to confirm how the shutter can be accessed if the vehicle battery, remote or motor loses power.
Can it be integrated with my smartphone, smart home system or vehicle remote?
Control options depend on the selected HSP or Armorshade model. Selected Armorshade shutters can be operated through the SmartCtr smartphone app, the supplied remote controls, an in-tub button and, on compatible vehicles, the factory OEM key fob.
Check the individual product specifications to confirm which smartphone and vehicle-control options are supported.
What stops the shutter from crushing cargo or fingers?
Selected electric roller shutters feature smart obstruction sensors that detect resistance or an object in the shutter’s path. When an obstruction is detected, the shutter stops moving to help reduce the risk of injury or damage to cargo.
Do I need a qualified electrician or auto-electrician to install it?
A qualified electrician is generally not required because the electric roller shutter uses a plug-and-play automotive wiring harness. However, professional installation by an experienced fitter or auto-electrician is highly recommended to ensure the shutter, wiring, drainage and safety features are installed correctly.
