Manual to electric conversion in Castleford: the essentials
The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising. Conversion removes the daily strain of lifting a heavy curtain, which is often the main reason people ask for it.
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Converting is often a good step before an older shutter's spring fails.
Features to choose from
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box

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.

Manual to electric conversion: common questions
Do you cover Castleford?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Castleford. We also cover nearby Pontefract, Wakefield and Ossett.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
