How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
Features to choose from
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
