Our manual to electric conversion service in Reigate
Reigate sits some 16 miles to the east of Guildford.
This work covers homes, shops and industrial premises in Reigate, so one survey can cover several openings of different types.
Converting a manual shutter in Reigate to electric depends on the curtain, barrel and guides being in good condition, so we check them before quoting.

Frequently asked questions
Is it worth converting rather than replacing?
If the shutter is sound, yes: a conversion costs a fraction of a new shutter.
How long does a conversion take?
Most domestic and shop conversions take a few hours once the parts are ready, plus any electrical work.
Do you cover Reigate?
Yes. Book a survey for any address in Reigate in the usual way; it is covered as part of Surrey.
Do I need permission for manual to electric conversion in Reigate?
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.
