What to know about manual to electric conversion in Amersham
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Options we can specify
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Amersham?
Yes. Amersham (HP7) is within our Buckinghamshire coverage, along with nearby Chesham, Chalfont St Peter and Gerrards Cross.
Do I need an electrician?
The shutter needs a power supply nearby. The connection is made by a qualified electrician, and a new circuit is quoted separately if there is no supply.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Can any manual shutter be converted?
Most can, if the curtain, barrel and box are in good condition. Very worn or damaged shutters are better replaced, and we tell you which at survey.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
