How Much Does Rolling Door Repair Cost?
Book on LINERepairing a rolling-door motor runs 800–2,500 baht per set; a full new motor starts around 3,500 baht per set. The single biggest factor is whether the motor itself can still be repaired or has actually burned out and needs replacing entirely.

Market reference range · actual price per quotation · Market estimates, not yet derived from completed jobs · last reviewed July 2026
The real price comes from the technician’s quotation. Usually it is priced from the photos and details you send on LINE, with no visit first; for some jobs the technician needs to see the site first and then sends the quote. Either way you confirm the price, and only then does the work start.
A visit costs 500 baht when the technician comes from your own province and 2,000 baht from another one. It is counted inside the quote’s single total rather than billed separately, and it is not refunded if you look and decide against the repair.
If a job needs the technician to see the site before a quote can be given, and that look ends with you deciding against the work, whether the visit is charged depends on the job; you are told before the visit.
The quoted total covers every item you confirmed, but not replacement parts: whether any are needed can only be established on site, and if they are, they are charged on top of the total.
What changes the price
- Door width and height — a wider or taller-than-standard door needs a more powerful motor and more material than a standard-sized one
- Motorised versus hand-pulled — an electric motor system adds equipment and wiring costs a manual pull system doesn't have
- The brand and spec of the replacement motor needed — a higher-power motor, or one with added anti-theft features, costs more than a standard-spec one of the same brand
- Whether the motor has actually burned out or it's just a belt or chain that's slipped — a mechanical-part fault costs far less to fix than a full motor swap
How to spend less
- Report unusual noise or slower opening as soon as you notice it — an early-stage fault is usually a cheap repair; leaving it until the motor burns out means a much more expensive full replacement
- Before agreeing to a new motor, have the technician check the belt, chain and control panel first — sometimes a door that won't open is just a mechanical part that can be fixed without replacing the motor at all
- If several shutters need repair at once, such as across a commercial unit, book them together rather than calling a technician out door by door
Frequently asked questions
Am I being charged a foreigner price for this?
The ranges here are the same market reference regardless of who's asking. What actually protects you is that the technician confirms the price over LINE, in writing, based on the motor and track details you send — compare it against this page rather than a verbal figure.
The door won't open — does that mean the motor needs replacing?
Not necessarily. Sometimes it's just a slipped belt or chain. The technician checks whether the motor itself is still working before recommending a replacement, since that's a much cheaper fix than a full motor swap if it turns out to be the actual problem.
My remote is lost or broken — can I just buy a new one and use it right away?
The new remote needs to be paired to the motor's receiver first, which the technician handles in the same visit.
Why can a new motor cost anywhere from 3,500 to 8,000 baht?
It comes down to the motor power needed for your door's size and the brand chosen — a higher-power motor for a large door, or one with extra features, costs more than a standard-spec model.
