What to know about manual to electric conversion in Uppingham
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
What's included
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Manual override for power cuts
