Manual to electric conversion in Caerphilly: the essentials
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
Options we can specify
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician

Rules in Wales
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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Caerphilly?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Caerphilly. We also cover nearby Risca, Pontypridd and Cardiff.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
Do I need an electrician?
The shutter needs a power supply nearby. The connection is made by a qualified electrician, and a new circuit is quoted separately if there is no supply.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
