How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
Specification options
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
