Electric conversion for properties in Stratford
Stratford sits some 6 miles to the east of central London.
Work in Stratford starts with a free survey: we measure the opening, check what the box and guides will fix to, and confirm the power supply.
Any electrical work for a new or converted shutter in Stratford is carried out to BS 7671, and making good is described in the quotation.
Whether your property is in the centre of Stratford or on its edges, it is included in our Greater London coverage. We also cover Bow, Canning Town and Canary Wharf, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

- Power: A suitable supply is needed near the shutter box; electrical work is done to BS 7671.
- Safety devices: Converting a commercial door to powered operation means adding suitable safety devices and commissioning them.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a conversion take?

Like-for-like replacements do not usually need permission, but a new external shutter or a change of type or position can, especially on shopfronts and listed buildings. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
