Why Choose Us
We do not replace what can be repaired. Our engineering-led approach saves clients thousands over the projector lifecycle.
Component-Level Repair
We repair power supplies, DMD boards, optical engines and laser modules rather than replacing entire assemblies. This reduces cost and environmental impact.
DCI Compliance Guaranteed
Every cinema repair is tested against DCI colour, luminance and uniformity standards. We provide compliance certificates for audit trails.
Two-Centre Logistics
Doncaster (UK) and Dublin (Ireland) service centres. Same-day collection across mainland UK and next-day to Ireland and most of EMEA.
Repair vs Replace Honesty
If a projector is beyond economical repair, we tell you immediately. No hidden fees, no unnecessary work. We can also source certified replacements.
Secure Data Handling
All firmware, calibration data and network configurations are backed up before repair and restored on completion. NDA available.
Wells Electronics Ltd
Part of the Wells Electronics group, with 15+ years in AV repair. We also operate FixMyProjector.com for multi-brand repair.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our Barco projector repair service.
How long does a typical Barco cinema projector repair take?
Most Cinema Series repairs are completed within 3–5 working days from intake. This includes diagnosis, component repair, DCI calibration and quality control. Laser module replacements may extend to 7 days. We offer an express 48-hour service for critical multiplex failures.
Do you offer on-site repair for Barco projectors?
On-site repair is available for large-venue UDX/UDM installations and simulation domes where removal is impractical. Home Cinema models (Freya, Njord, Loki, Balder) can also be assessed in-home. Cinema Series projectors are typically bench-repaired at our Doncaster or Dublin centres for clean-room conditions.
Is my projector warranty affected by your repair?
Repairs on out-of-warranty projectors do not affect any remaining manufacturer warranty on unrelated components. For in-warranty units, we recommend contacting Barco directly. We can provide independent assessment reports to support warranty claims.
What Barco error codes can you diagnose?
We maintain a comprehensive database of Barco error codes for Cinema Series (5555, 5310, 4200, 4600, 4800), Pulse/Event Series (76, 77, 104, 105, 202), UDX/UDM (L1–L9, T1–T5) and Simulation platforms. See our Technical Resources page for full listings.
Do you repair Barco home cinema projectors?
Yes. We repair the full Barco residential range including Freya, Njord, Loki, Balder, Bragi, Thor and Medea. Services include laser/LED light source replacement, optical path cleaning, 4K UHD alignment, HDMI board repair and firmware updates. In-home assessment is available within 50 miles of Doncaster or Dublin.
How do I arrange collection from Ireland or EMEA?
Select your location in our booking form. We use insured couriers with custom packaging for all Barco projector models. EMEA clients outside the UK and Ireland should contact us directly for shipping instructions and customs documentation.
What is your repair warranty?
All repairs come with a 90-day warranty covering the work performed and any replaced parts. If the same issue recurs within 90 days due to our workmanship, we will repair it free of charge. Extended warranty options are available for annual maintenance contract customers.
How much does a typical repair cost?
Repair costs vary depending on the projector model, fault type, and parts required. We provide a detailed quote after diagnosis and before any work begins. There is no charge for the diagnosis if you proceed with the repair. For out-of-warranty cinema projectors, typical repairs range from £300 to £1,500.
Do you provide loan projectors while mine is being repaired?
Yes, loan projectors are available for cinema and large-venue clients subject to availability. Please mention this when booking your repair so we can reserve a unit. Loan projectors are delivered with your collection and picked up when your repaired unit is returned.
Can you repair projectors that other service centres could not fix?
Absolutely. We specialise in component-level repairs that many other centres cannot perform. Our engineering team has experience with complex faults including DMD board failures, optical engine issues, and laser module problems. We have a high success rate with projectors that were deemed beyond repair elsewhere.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept bank transfer, credit/debit card, and PayPal. Payment is due within 14 days of invoice. For business customers, we can arrange 30-day payment terms subject to credit check. All prices exclude VAT unless stated otherwise.
How do I prepare my projector for collection?
Please power down the projector and allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes before collection. Remove any attached cables, lenses (unless faulty), and accessories. If you have the original packaging, please use it. Otherwise, our courier will bring appropriate protective packaging. Include a brief note describing the fault if possible.
