How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for

A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.

Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.

What's included

  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
  • Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in England

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
