What to know about manual to electric conversion in Hebburn
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. A manual override is fitted so the shutter can still be operated in a power cut.
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
Specification options
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Commissioning and safety checks
