Industrial door motor replacement in New Malden

In short

Motor replacement in New Malden starts with a chargeable diagnostic visit, then a written fixed price for the new drive and any other repairs the door needs before it goes back into use.

Town: New Malden
Postcode district: KT3
Area: Greater London
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What our engineers check and fix

Re-commissioning. The door is fully re-commissioned and tested before it goes back into use.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.

Examples of work we can quote for

Fitting an equivalent chain-drive motor with adapter plates to a large sectional door whose original drive is discontinued.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
Fitting a centre-mounted motor where an end-mounted replacement would clash with racking beside the door.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in New Malden?

In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Keeping your site running during the work

Service and repair visits in New Malden are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.
