Question
How do I raise my electric roller shutter when the power is off?
Provided the motor has a manual override, you can. Depending on make this is a pull chain, a hand crank or a release lever. We demonstrate it when handing over and test it each time we service. If the shutter has to run through blackouts, certain motors accept battery backup. Ask Mount Everest Automatic Doors which choice suits your motor.
