Manual to electric conversion in Hexham: the essentials
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
Specification options
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Single-visit fitting in most cases

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.

An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

Tested and reported
Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
Manual to electric conversion: common questions
Do you cover Hexham?
Yes. Hexham (NE46) is within our Northumberland coverage, along with nearby Consett, Stanley and Newcastle upon Tyne.
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 a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
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.
