How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover. 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. Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom.
Features to choose from
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Obstacle detection options
- Safety checks on handover
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- 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.

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

Your questions answered
Do you cover Lincoln?
Yes. Lincoln (LN2) is within our Lincolnshire coverage, along with nearby Gainsborough, Newark-on-Trent and Retford.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
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.
