Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Aberdeen
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. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
Options we can specify
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control

Rules in Scotland
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.

Manual to electric conversion: common questions
Do you cover Aberdeen?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual to electric conversion in Aberdeen and the AB10 district, as part of our coverage across Grampian.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
