Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Prescot
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Options we can specify
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Commissioning and safety checks

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 Prescot?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Prescot. We also cover nearby Huyton, St Helens and Halewood.
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.
