Industrial door motor replacement in Shepherd's Bush

Quick answer

Door stalling, grinding or creeping down at your Shepherd's Bush 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: Shepherd's Bush
Postcode district: W12
Area: Greater London
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What our engineers check and fix

Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.
Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.

What this work can involve

Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
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 Shepherd's Bush

Shepherd's Bush 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

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
