Manual to electric conversion in Bletchley: the essentials
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
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.
What's included
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
