Manual to electric conversion in Seaford: the essentials
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
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
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains

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.
Can any manual shutter be converted?

Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
