Shutter motor replacement in Gerrards Cross: the essentials

Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom.

Key switches, wall switches, receivers and remotes can be replaced or upgraded at the same visit. A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.

What's included

  • Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
  • Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
  • Motors matched to curtain weight
  • Obstacle detection options
  • Safety checks on handover
  • Limits set and tested

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
