Manual to electric conversion in Welshpool: the essentials
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
Options we can specify
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
