Shutter motor replacement in Norfolk: the essentials
Industrial direct-drive motors can be replaced with a matching or compatible unit on most doors. Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early. A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.
After a new motor is fitted, safety devices and limits are tested before handover. Key switches, wall switches, receivers and remotes can be replaced or upgraded at the same visit.
Features to choose from
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Obstacle detection options
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Smart and timer control options
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors

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.
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.
Engineer visit
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
Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
Your questions answered
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 I add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.
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 I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
