How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Industrial direct-drive motors can be replaced with a matching or compatible unit on most doors. Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early.
Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom.
Specification options
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Smart and timer control options
- Safety checks on handover
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors

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 Sale
Do you cover Sale?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Sale. We also cover nearby Stretford, Urmston and Altrincham.
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 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.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
