Manual to electric conversion in South Croydon: the essentials
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. 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. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Features to choose from
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts

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.
