What does a new garage door motor involve in Newmarket?

Can you replace any brand?

We can replace most domestic operators with a current unit. Using the existing rail is sometimes possible; often a complete new operator and rail is the better job.

Is it the motor or the door?

A motor that strains, stops or reverses is often struggling with an unbalanced door, a broken spring or a sticking roller. We check the door first, because a new motor on a faulty door will fail again.

How much does a new garage door motor cost in Newmarket?

Guide price: £450–£850 inc VAT. We agree the visit price before we come; parts and any further work are priced before we do them.

You will know the visit price before we book. Any parts or extra work are quoted and agreed with you first.

What should you do until the engineer arrives in Newmarket?

Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.

Operators normally run from a switched fused spur; adding one to an existing circuit is not notifiable in England, but a new circuit falls under Part P.
