How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for

Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.

Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.

Options we can specify

  • Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain
  • Single-visit fitting in most cases
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
  • Options for heavy steel curtains

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Manual to electric conversion: common questions

Do you cover Congleton?

Yes. Congleton (CW12) is within our Cheshire coverage, along with nearby Kidsgrove, Macclesfield and Crewe.

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.

Will it still open in a power cut?

Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
