Shutter motor replacement in Tonbridge: the essentials
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.
A motor that hums but does not turn, overheats or stops at random may need replacing, though controls are checked first. Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early.
Options we can specify
- Obstacle detection options
- Safety checks on handover
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- 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.
