How manual to electric conversion works, and what to ask for
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. A key switch is the usual control for shops, with remotes and timers as options.
What's included
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Condition check of curtain, barrel and box
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Manual override for power cuts

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.
