How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for

Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover.

Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early. We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door.

Specification options

  • Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
  • Motors matched to curtain weight
  • Smart and timer control options
  • Obstacle detection options
  • Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
  • Safety checks on handover

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Altrincham?

Yes. Altrincham (WA14) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Sale, Urmston and Stretford.

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.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.

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.
