Garage door motor replacement and upgrades in Consett: what to expect
What about adding a motor to a manual door?
Converting a manual sectional door to powered operation is possible if the door is suitable and in good order. The converted door must be checked and set up to the powered door safety requirements, with photocells where needed.
Can I get app control?
Many current operators offer app control through a module or built-in Wi-Fi. We can fit and set it up as part of the job.

Safety points for Consett customers
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.
If the garage already has a socket near the operator position, no electrical notification is needed. A brand-new circuit is notifiable under Part P in England.

Questions from Consett customers
Will a new motor be quieter?
A belt-driven operator on a well-balanced door is usually much quieter than an older chain drive.
Can a motor be fitted to an old up-and-over door?
Operators exist for some up-and-over doors, but this site covers sectional doors. Many customers find replacing the door is better value.
