Stop lifting heavy shutters by hand.
Hauling a heavy manual shutter twice a day is a common cause of back injuries, and worn springs make it worse. In most cases we can fit a motor to your existing shutter in a few hours, with no need for a new curtain.
We add a key switch, remote control or smartphone control, plus a manual override so you are never locked out in a power cut.
