What to know about manual to electric conversion in Wilmslow

A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.

Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.

What's included

  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Options for heavy steel curtains
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain
  • Single-visit fitting in most cases
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Key switch, remote or timer control

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

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.

Before you book in Wilmslow

Do you cover Wilmslow?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual to electric conversion in Wilmslow and the SK9 district, as part of our coverage across Cheshire.

Will it still open in a power cut?

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

How long does a conversion take?

Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.

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 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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
