Tell us what the shutter is doing. We confirm the price before an engineer visits.
How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
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.
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
What's included
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, remote or timer control

Before you book in Armagh
Do you cover Armagh?
Yes. Armagh (BT60) is within our County Armagh coverage, along with nearby Portadown, Dungannon and Banbridge.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
