Manual to electric conversion in Flint: the essentials

Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.

Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.

What's included

  • Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain
  • Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
  • Key switch, remote or timer control

Rules in Wales

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.

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

What warranty do I get?
