What to know about manual to electric conversion in Archway

The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.

Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.

Features to choose from

  • Key switch, remote or timer control
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain
  • Single-visit fitting in most cases
  • Options for heavy steel curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts

Where we work around Archway

Our engineers travel across Greater London, including Archway (N19). We also cover nearby Holloway, Muswell Hill and Chalk Farm, so jobs at more than one site can be grouped into one visit.

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Archway?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Archway. We also cover nearby Holloway, Muswell Hill and Chalk Farm.

Will it still open in a power cut?

Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.

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.

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.

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.
