What our engineers check and fix

Brake and override. Brakes tested and manual override checked on every change.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.

Jobs we can carry out

Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
