Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Wigan
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
Options we can specify
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Manual override for power cuts
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks

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.

Before you book in Wigan
Do you cover Wigan?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Wigan. We also cover nearby Hindley, Ashton-in-Makerfield and Westhoughton.
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.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Do I need an electrician?
The shutter needs a power supply nearby. The connection is made by a qualified electrician, and a new circuit is quoted separately if there is no supply.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
