Manual to electric conversion in East Riding of Yorkshire: the essentials
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
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.
What's included
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Commissioning and safety checks
- 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.
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.

Your questions answered
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.
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.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
