Industrial door motor replacement in Kidderminster

In short

Door stalling, grinding or creeping down at your Kidderminster 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.

Town: Kidderminster
Postcode district: DY10
Area: Worcestershire
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What our engineers check and fix

Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
Obsolete motors. When a motor is discontinued, we fit a suitable alternative and adapt the mounting.
Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.

Jobs we can carry out

Fitting a centre-mounted motor where an end-mounted replacement would clash with racking beside the door.
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.

Powered door rules that apply in Kidderminster

Kidderminster 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.

How the work is organised

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.

Questions from businesses in Kidderminster

Do you replace motors on any make of door across Worcestershire?

We replace motors on most makes of roller shutter, sectional, sliding and high-speed door across Worcestershire, whoever installed them, subject to a suitable drive being available for the door's weight and mounting.

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

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.

Should we replace the whole door instead of the motor in Kidderminster?

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.
