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. Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom.

Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. Smart and timer controls can be added when the motor is replaced.

Features to choose from

  • Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
  • Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
  • Obstacle detection options
  • Limits set and tested
  • Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
  • Motors matched to curtain weight

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

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

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

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

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Questions about shutter motor replacement in London

Do you cover London?

Yes. London (EC1A) is within our Greater London coverage, along with nearby Westminster, Pimlico and Islington.

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 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 I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
