What to know about manual to electric conversion in Crowborough
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
What's included
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch, remote or timer control
