How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
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.
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Specification options
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
