Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Strabane
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. 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. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
Features to choose from
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?
