How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Limits are set on installation so the curtain stops at the right point at the top and bottom. 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. We fit motors to most makes of shutter and door.
What's included
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- Direct-drive and chain motors for industrial doors
- Limits set and tested
- Safety checks on handover
- Smart and timer control options
- Motors matched to curtain weight

Newmarket and surrounding towns
Jobs in Newmarket are planned as part of our Suffolk coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Haverhill, Ely and Cambridge. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.
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.

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

Before you book in Newmarket
Do you cover Newmarket?
Yes. Newmarket (CB8) is within our Suffolk coverage, along with nearby Haverhill, Ely and Cambridge.
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 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 add remote control when the motor is replaced?
Yes, many replacement motors and controllers support remotes, timers or app control.
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.
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.
