How shutter motor replacement works, and what to ask for
Motors are matched to the curtain weight and barrel size, so an overloaded motor does not fail early. 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 failed motor on an otherwise sound shutter is usually far cheaper to replace than the whole shutter.
Features to choose from
- Key switch, remote and receiver upgrades
- Smart and timer control options
- Limits set and tested
- Safety checks on handover
- Tube motors for domestic and shop shutters
- 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.

Before you book in Whitley Bay
Do you cover Whitley Bay?
Yes. Whitley Bay (NE26) is within our Tyne and Wear coverage, along with nearby North Shields, Tynemouth and South Shields.
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 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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
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.
