Manual to electric conversion in Hawick: the essentials
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Options we can specify
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts

Before you book in Hawick
Do you cover Hawick?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Hawick. We also cover nearby Peebles.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
Can any manual shutter be converted?
Most can, if the curtain, barrel and box are in good condition. Very worn or damaged shutters are better replaced, and we tell you which at survey.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
