How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. 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. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
Specification options
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Manual override for power cuts
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- 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.

Before you book in Berkhamsted
Do you cover Berkhamsted?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Berkhamsted. We also cover nearby Chesham, Hemel Hempstead and Amersham.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
