Manual to electric conversion in Wallington: the essentials

A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.

The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.

What's included

  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Key switch, remote or timer control
  • Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
  • Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
  • Tube motor sized to the curtain
  • Options for heavy steel curtains

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

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

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Wallington?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Wallington. We also cover nearby Carshalton, Sutton and South Croydon.

How long does a conversion take?

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

Can any manual shutter be converted?

Most can, if the curtain, barrel and box are in good condition. Very worn or damaged shutters are better replaced, and we tell you which at survey.

Will it still open in a power cut?

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

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
