Choosing shutter motor replacement for premises in Didcot
Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom. 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. A failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.
What's included
- Motors matched to curtain weight
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Obstacle detection options
- Smart and timer control options
- Limits set and tested
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Didcot?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Didcot. We also cover nearby Abingdon, Thatcham and Newbury.
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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
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.
