What to know about manual to electric conversion in Chadderton
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Features to choose from
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases

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.

Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
