Door stalling, grinding or creeping down at your Stourbridge 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.

- Guide price

What's included
- Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.
- Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.
- Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
- Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
- Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
- Fitting an equivalent chain-drive motor with adapter plates to a large sectional door whose original drive is discontinued.
- Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Stourbridge 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.
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.

Industrial door motor replacement in Stourbridge: your questions
How soon can a door motor in Stourbridge 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.
Is the motor really the problem with our door in Stourbridge?
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.
Will our door in Stourbridge 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.
