How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for

Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.

A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.

What's included

  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
  • Single-visit fitting in most cases
  • Options for heavy steel curtains
  • Key switch, remote or timer control
An electrician wiring a key switch box beside a roller shutter guide

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

    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.
