How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
What's included
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Manual override for power cuts
- 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.

Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.
