Garage door motor replacement and upgrades in Hailsham: common questions
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.
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.

What does a new garage door motor cost in Hailsham?

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