What to know about manual to electric conversion in Bath
A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options. The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready.
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.
Specification options
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains

Rules in England
Electrical work

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.
