How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early. After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover.
Key switches, wall switches, receivers and remotes can be replaced or upgraded at the same visit. Smart and timer controls can be added when the motor is replaced.
Features to choose from
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Limits set and tested
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Safety checks on handover
- 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Workington?
Yes. Workington (CA14) is within our Cumbria coverage, along with nearby Whitehaven.
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.
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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
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.
