How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover. Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early.
Industrial direct-drive motors can be replaced with a matching or compatible unit on most doors. A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.
Specification options
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Limits set and tested
- Smart and timer control options
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Obstacle detection options

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 Kendal
Do you cover Kendal?
Yes. Kendal (LA9) is within our Cumbria coverage, along with nearby Morecambe, Lancaster and Barrow-in-Furness.
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.
Can I add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
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.
