Manual to electric conversion in Cheshunt: the essentials
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
Options we can specify
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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.

Manual to electric conversion: common questions
Do you cover Cheshunt?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Cheshunt. We also cover nearby Waltham Abbey, Enfield and Hoddesdon.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
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.
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.
