What to know about manual to electric conversion in Holloway
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. 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. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
Options we can specify
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Single-visit fitting in most cases

Before you book in Holloway
Do you cover Holloway?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual to electric conversion in Holloway and the N7 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
