Frequently asked questions
How much does a new shutter motor cost?
A domestic tubular motor is usually £295–£595 including VAT fitted (£245–£495 plus VAT); commercial and industrial motors cost more depending on size and duty.
How do I know if my shutter motor has failed?
If the shutter hums but does not move, stops part way, or does nothing when the power and switch are fine, the motor or its limits are the likely cause. We test before replacing.
Do you work on shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We work on most makes of domestic, shop and industrial roller shutter, wherever they came from.
Do you cover Doncaster?
Yes. Doncaster and the DN1 postcode district are part of our coverage across South Yorkshire.
