What the repair involves in Bristol
Shutter motor replacement usually starts with the engineer watching the shutter run, if it runs at all, then checking the parts most likely to be at fault. Tubular and external motors repaired or replaced on electric shutters. Where the part is carried on the van the job is often finished the same visit.
- Test the supply, switch and limit settings before condemning a motor
- Match a replacement motor to the curtain weight and barrel size
- Fit, set top and bottom limits and test
- Remove and dispose of the old motor
