What does a new garage door motor involve in Exmouth?
What does setting up involve?
Open and close limits, force limits, soft start and stop, photocell tests and the emergency release are all set and checked, then handsets are coded.
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.

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