How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for

Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.

After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover. We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door.

What's included

  • Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
  • Smart and timer control options
  • Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
  • Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
  • Limits set and tested
  • Obstacle detection options

Rules in Northern Ireland

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.

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.

Questions about shutter motor replacement in Derry/Londonderry

Do you cover Derry/Londonderry?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair shutter motor replacement in Derry/Londonderry and the BT47 district, as part of our coverage across County Londonderry.

How do I know if the motor has failed?

Signs include humming without movement, stopping at random, overheating or not responding at all. The fault can also be the switch, receiver or power, so an engineer checks those first.

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 you fit a motor to a different make of shutter?

Usually yes, by matching the motor size and torque to the barrel and curtain.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
