What to know about manual to electric conversion in Hailsham
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
Options we can specify
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Commissioning and safety checks

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.
