What to know about manual to electric conversion in Woodford Green
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.
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Features to choose from
- Manual override for power cuts
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

How long does it take from order to fitting?
