How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Features to choose from
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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.

Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
