How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Smart and timer controls can be added when the motor is replaced. After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover.
Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. A motor that hums but does not turn, overheats or stops at random may need replacing, though controls are checked first.
Features to choose from
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Smart and timer control options
- Limits set and tested
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Obstacle detection options
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Before you book in Ely
Do you cover Ely?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Ely. We also cover nearby Newmarket, March and Cambridge.
Can you fit a motor to a different make of shutter?
Usually yes, by matching the motor size and torque to the barrel and curtain.
Do I need a new key switch too?
Not always. If the switch works and is compatible, it can stay. Worn or weather-damaged switches are often replaced at the same time.
Can I add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
