How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
Features to choose from
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts

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.
How it works

Before you book in Daventry
Do you cover Daventry?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Daventry. We also cover nearby Rugby, Leamington Spa and Banbury.
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.
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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
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.
