Shutter motor replacement in Loughborough: the essentials

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.

After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover. A motor that hums but does not turn, overheats or stops at random may need replacing, though controls are checked first.

Specification options

  • Safety checks on handover
  • Motors matched to curtain weight
  • Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
  • Limits set and tested
  • Obstacle detection options
  • Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades

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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

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

  2. Engineer visit

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

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. 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 Loughborough?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Loughborough. We also cover nearby Coalville, Long Eaton and West Bridgford.

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.

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 a motor to a different make of shutter?

Usually yes, by matching the motor size and torque to the barrel and curtain.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
