How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door. A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.
Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom. Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early.
What's included
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Safety checks on handover
- Obstacle detection options
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Limits set and tested

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.

Shutter motor replacement: common questions
Do you cover Eastbourne?
Yes. Eastbourne (BN21) is within our East Sussex coverage, along with nearby Hailsham, Seaford and Bexhill-on-Sea.
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.
Can I add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
What warranty do I get?
