Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Ryde
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
What's included
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in England
Electrical work
