What to know about manual to electric conversion in Arnold
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Specification options
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and safety checks
