Questions about shutter motor replacement in Dunfermline
Do you cover Dunfermline?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Dunfermline. We also cover nearby Livingston, Kirkcaldy and Edinburgh.
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.
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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
