What to know about manual to electric conversion in Kirkby
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
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.
What's included
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
