Industrial door motor replacement in Heston

The short version

Door stalling, grinding or creeping down at your Heston site? It may need a new motor, or the motor may be suffering from a fault elsewhere. We diagnose which it is before recommending anything.

Town: Heston
Postcode district: TW5
Area: Greater London
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What our engineers check and fix

Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Obsolete motors. When a motor is discontinued, we fit a suitable alternative and adapt the mounting.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.
Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.

What this work can involve

Upgrading an old relay control panel to a modern unit with monitored safety edge inputs during a motor change.
Fitting an equivalent chain-drive motor with adapter plates to a large sectional door whose original drive is discontinued.
Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.

Powered door rules that apply in Heston

Heston is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

How the work is organised

Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.
