Garage door motor replacement and upgrades in Newcastle-under-Lyme: common questions
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.
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.

Safety points for Newcastle-under-Lyme 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.
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.
