What's included

Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.

What this work can involve

Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.
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.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Dudley 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.

How the work is organised

Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

Industrial door motor replacement in Dudley: your questions

Will our door in Dudley 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.

Is the motor really the problem with our door in Dudley?

Not always. Broken springs, damaged guides, failed panels, safety device faults and supply problems can all look like a failed motor. We diagnose first so you do not pay for a motor that will not fix the fault.

Can you replace an obsolete door motor in Dudley?

Yes. Where the original is no longer made, we fit an equivalent drive with any adapter plates or couplings needed, then set limits and test the safety devices before the door goes back into use.
