Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Egham
Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
Specification options
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician

Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.
