What to know about manual to electric conversion in Wokingham
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
Options we can specify
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in England
