What does a new garage door motor cost in Swadlincote?
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.

Safety points for Swadlincote customers
If a spring has broken, a cable has come off or the door hangs crooked, stop using it, keep people and pets clear and do not try to force it open or closed. Leave the operator unplugged until the engineer has checked it.
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.

Questions from Swadlincote 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.
