How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Specification options
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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 Cramlington?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair manual to electric conversion in Cramlington and the NE23 district, as part of our coverage across Northumberland.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
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.
