What to know about manual to electric conversion in Stanley

The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.

The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.

What's included

  • Options for heavy steel curtains
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
  • Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
  • Single-visit fitting in most cases
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain

Rules in England

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.
