Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Leytonstone
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Options we can specify
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Commissioning and safety checks

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.

Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.

Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
