How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door. Industrial direct-drive motors can be replaced with a matching or compatible unit on most doors.
After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover. Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge.
Options we can specify
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Safety checks on handover
- Limits set and tested
- Obstacle detection options

Rules in England
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Before you book in Leigh
Do you cover Leigh?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Leigh. We also cover nearby Atherton, Tyldesley and Golborne.
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.
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 you fit a motor to a different make of shutter?
Usually yes, by matching the motor size and torque to the barrel and curtain.
Who carries out the work?
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?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
