Manual to electric conversion in Renfrew: the essentials
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.
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Features to choose from
- Manual override for power cuts
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
