Manual to electric conversion in Salisbury: the essentials
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. The existing curtain and box are inspected first, because a worn shutter is not worth motorising.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
Options we can specify
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Manual override for power cuts
- Options for heavy steel curtains

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Salisbury?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Salisbury. We also cover nearby Andover, Totton and Southampton.
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.
Will it still open in a power cut?
Yes, a manual override is fitted as part of the conversion.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
