Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Workington
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.
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
Specification options
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in England
Electrical work
