What to know about shutter motor replacement in Hythe
We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door. Key switches, wall switches, receivers and remotes can be replaced or upgraded at the same visit.
A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter. Industrial direct-drive motors can be replaced with a matching or compatible unit on most doors.
Options we can specify
- Smart and timer control options
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Obstacle detection options
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters

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.
How it works

Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.
Engineer visit
An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.
Fixed repair price
You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.
Tested and reported
Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
Your questions answered
Do you cover Hythe?
Yes. Hythe (SO45) is within our Hampshire coverage, along with nearby Totton, Eastleigh and Cowes.
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.
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.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
