Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Stratford (London)
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.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
Specification options
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Manual override for power cuts
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
