Book a visit
Tell us what the shutter is doing. We confirm the price before an engineer visits.
How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door. 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. 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
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Options for heavy steel curtains
