What the repair involves in Essex
Push-up or winding-handle shutters converted to electric operation. That is the core of our manual to electric conversion work. The engineer also checks the rest of the shutter while on site, so you know about any other part that is close to failing before it strands you.
- Check the curtain and barrel are sound enough to motorise
- Fit a tubular or external motor sized to the curtain
- Add controls, isolator and manual override
- Set limits and show staff how to use it
