Why automate your roller shutter?
- Convenience: open and close with a remote or wall switch, with no lifting or chains
- Safety: stops staff straining with heavy doors and reduces accidents
- Security: close the door from inside your vehicle and avoid waiting in the open
- Longer door life: controlled, even operation reduces wear on springs and slats
Motor options
Tubular motors fit inside the barrel and are perfect for residential roller garage doors and smaller commercial shutters.
Centre-mount and side-mount motors suit larger commercial doors and allow easy servicing.
Industrial gear motors in single-phase or three-phase drive large, heavy shutters and come with a manual chain override for when there is no power.
Load-shedding and power failures
Power interruptions shouldn't lock you in or out. We can add battery backup or UPS solutions for compatible motors, and every motor we fit has a manual override so the door can still be operated by hand.
Motor repairs and upgrades
If your existing motor is slow, noisy, overrunning its limits or not responding to the remote, we can diagnose and repair it, replace the control board or capacitor, re-code remotes or replace the motor with a modern unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can my manual roller shutter be motorised?
In most cases, yes. We check the size, weight and condition of the door and recommend a suitable motor.
What happens to my motorised shutter during load-shedding?
All our motors have a manual override. We can also add battery backup to compatible systems so the door keeps working during power cuts.
Can you add extra remotes?
Yes. We supply and code additional remotes and can add wall-mounted keypads or switches.
Do motors need servicing?
A yearly check of the motor limits, brake, fixings and door balance helps prevent breakdowns and extends motor life.
