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. After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover.
Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom. Smart and timer controls can be added when the motor is replaced.
Options we can specify
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Safety checks on handover
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Limits set and tested
- Smart and timer control 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.
