How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. 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. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
What's included
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Key switch, remote or timer control

Questions about manual to electric conversion in Larne
Do you cover Larne?
Yes. Larne (BT40) is within our County Antrim coverage, along with nearby Carrickfergus, Newtownabbey and Bangor (County Down).
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.
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 a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
