How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
Options we can specify
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in Wales
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.

Before you book in Pontypridd
Do you cover Pontypridd?
Yes. Pontypridd (CF37) is within our Mid Glamorgan coverage, along with nearby Tonypandy, Caerphilly and Aberdare.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
