What to know about manual to electric conversion in Crewe
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
Options we can specify
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
