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
