What to know about manual to electric conversion in Wimbledon
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
Options we can specify
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Manual override for power cuts
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Wimbledon?

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.
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.
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.
