Industrial door motor replacement in Perth

At a glance

When the original motor on a door in Perth (PH1) is no longer made, we fit an equivalent drive with the adapters it needs, set new limits and test closing forces before handover.

Town: Perth
Postcode district: PH1
Area: Perth and Kinross
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What's included

Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
Upgrading an old relay control panel to a modern unit with monitored safety edge inputs during a motor change.

Safety law for industrial doors in Scotland

Industrial doors in Perth are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.
