Manual to electric conversion in Leyland: the essentials
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. 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
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Manual override for power cuts

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Leyland?
Yes. Leyland (PR25) is within our Lancashire coverage, along with nearby Chorley, Blackburn and Darwen.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
