How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
What's included
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Key switch, remote or timer control

Rules in England
Electrical work

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.
