What to know about manual to electric conversion in Chesham
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
What's included
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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.

Questions about manual to electric conversion in Chesham
Do you cover Chesham?
Yes. Chesham (HP5) is within our Buckinghamshire coverage, along with nearby Amersham, Berkhamsted and Chalfont St Peter.
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.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
