Common questions

Why does my shutter motor keep cutting out?

It may be undersized for the curtain, or the curtain may be binding in the guides and overloading it.

How do I open my shutter if the motor has failed?

Many electric shutters have a manual override. If yours does not, or it will not move, call us rather than forcing it.

Do you offer shutter motor replacement across all of Tyne and Wear?

Yes. We cover Tyne and Wear in full, including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, Gateshead and South Shields, for both urgent and planned work.

What should I do before the engineer arrives?

Keep people clear of broken glass, do not force a jammed door or shutter, and take photos if it is safe to do so. If you can, note any make or model shown on the door, closer or shutter motor.
