How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Key switches, wall switches, receivers and remotes can be replaced or upgraded at the same visit. A motor that hums but does not turn, overheats or stops at random may need replacing, though controls are checked first.
We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door. Smart and timer controls can be added when the motor is replaced.
What's included
- Smart and timer control options
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Limits set and tested
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Obstacle detection options

Rules in Scotland
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

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

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

Your questions answered
Do you cover Arbroath?
Yes. Arbroath (DD11) is within our Dundee & Angus coverage, along with nearby Montrose and Forfar.
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.
Can I add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
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.
