What to know about manual to electric conversion in Harrow
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.
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
Specification options
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Harrow?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual to electric conversion in Harrow and the HA2 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
