What's included
- Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.
- Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.
- Obsolete motors. When a motor is discontinued, we fit a suitable alternative and adapt the mounting.
- Matched drives. Each replacement drive is selected for the door it will move, not just the old part number.
- Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
- Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.
- Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Mid Glamorgan?
In Wales, 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.
Access, phasing and timing

Industrial door motor replacement in Mid Glamorgan: your questions
How soon can a door motor in Mid Glamorgan be replaced?
Many common motors can be sourced quickly, and fitting usually takes a few hours once the drive is on site. Specialist or obsolete motors may need ordering; we tell you the lead time with the quote.
Should we replace the whole door instead of the motor in Mid Glamorgan?
If the door itself is old, damaged or needs several other repairs, replacement can be better value. We price both where it makes sense, so you can weigh up the cost and remaining life honestly.
Will our door in Mid Glamorgan be tested after the motor is changed?
Yes. We set limits, test the brake and manual override, check safety devices and measure closing forces where required, then give you a written record of the work and test results.
