Manual to electric conversion in Greenwich: the essentials
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
Features to choose from
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Single-visit fitting in most cases

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.
