What to know about manual to electric conversion in Scarborough
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Specification options
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases

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. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Scarborough. We also cover nearby Bridlington.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
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.
