What to know about manual to electric conversion in East Grinstead
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Once motorised, the shutter is commissioned with safety checks like any powered door.
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.
Options we can specify
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Key switch, remote or timer control

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.

Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

Before you book in East Grinstead
Do you cover East Grinstead?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in East Grinstead. We also cover nearby Horley, Crowborough and Haywards Heath.
Do I need an electrician?
The shutter needs a power supply nearby. The connection is made by a qualified electrician, and a new circuit is quoted separately if there is no supply.
Can any manual shutter be converted?
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.
How long does a conversion take?
Usually a single visit once the motor and controls are ready.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
