Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Swindon
Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed. A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters.
Features to choose from
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Manual override for power cuts
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Swindon?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Swindon. We also cover nearby Cirencester, Chippenham and Witney.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
