What does a new garage door motor involve in Oakham?
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 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.

How much does a new garage door motor cost in Oakham?
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.
This is a chargeable visit, priced up front. If parts are needed, you get the price before any further work is done.
Safety points for Oakham 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.
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.
