Manual to electric conversion in Chiswick: the essentials
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
What's included
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box

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.
