What we do

Our roller shutters & gates services

Main service

Fitting and motorising roller shutters

Ahmed installs the type of roller shutter that suits your façade: surface-mounted with the box on the façade, or built-in so it disappears into the wall. He connects the tubular motor and the controls neatly, with the cables concealed. Manually operated roller shutters can, in most cases, be motorised afterwards.

Automating garage doors

Ahmed installs the door, fits the drive mechanism and carefully adjusts the end positions. Photocells and a safety edge are mandatory on an automated door: they make the door stop or reverse if there is anything underneath it. He adjusts the closing force to eliminate any risk of entrapment.

Sliding and swing gates for your driveway

For a sliding gate, Ahmed installs the rack-and-pinion motor and the ground rail; for a swing gate, he fits the arm drive to the pillars. He neatly finishes off the control box and wiring, with a separate fused circuit for the motor. You operate the gate with a transmitter, a keypad or your smartphone.

Repairing a faulty motor or a jammed gate

If your gate jams or the motor no longer responds, Ahmed first identifies the cause before replacing anything. Often a repair will suffice: a worn part, a drifted end position or a faulty control unit. He'll tell you honestly what is worth repairing and what is better off being replaced.
