What to know about manual to electric conversion in Loughton
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
What's included
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Single-visit fitting in most cases

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.

Before you book in Loughton
Do you cover Loughton?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Loughton. We also cover nearby Chingford, Woodford Green and Waltham Abbey.
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?
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
