In short
Door stalling, grinding or creeping down at your Radcliffe 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.

What our engineers check and fix
- Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
- Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
- Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.
- Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
- Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Upgrading an old relay control panel to a modern unit with monitored safety edge inputs during a motor change.
- 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 Radcliffe
Radcliffe 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.
Access, phasing and timing
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.
