Shutter motor replacement in Leicester: the essentials
Some replacement motors have built-in obstacle detection, which adds protection on doors without a safety edge. We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door.
Smart and timer controls can be added when the motor is replaced. Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom.
What's included
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Safety checks on handover
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Obstacle detection options
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Motors matched to curtain weight

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Yes. We survey, fit and repair shutter motor replacement in Leicester and the LE1 district, as part of our coverage across Leicestershire.
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.

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
