What to know about manual to electric conversion in Sutton in Ashfield
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. 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.
What's included
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Manual override for power cuts
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
