Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Gainsborough
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
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.
Options we can specify
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Commissioning and safety checks

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.

Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
Can any manual shutter be converted?
