Choosing shutter motor replacement for premises in Portsmouth
Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom. We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door.
A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter. A motor that hums but does not turn, overheats or stops at random may need replacing, though controls are checked first.
Features to choose from
- Limits set and tested
- Obstacle detection options
- Smart and timer control options
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Safety checks on handover

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
Describe the fault
Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

Tested and reported
Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
Shutter motor replacement: common questions
Do you cover Portsmouth?
Yes. Portsmouth (PO5) is within our Hampshire coverage, along with nearby Gosport, Fareham and Ryde.
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.
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 you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
