How We Solved A Common Motor Issue in Kensington
A warehouse in Kensington had an industrial roller door that wouldn't lift. Another company told them they needed a full new door. We tested the electrics, identified a burnt-out tubular motor, replaced the motor unit from our van stock, and saved them thousands of pounds.
