What to know about manual to electric conversion in Hornchurch
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 shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
Specification options
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician

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.
