Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Cirencester
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
Features to choose from
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Tube motor sized to the curtain

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.
