Garage door motor replacement and upgrades in Weybridge: 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 I get app control?
Many current operators offer app control through a module or built-in Wi-Fi. We can fit and set it up as part of the job.

- PhotocellsAdded or replaced.

How much does a new garage door motor cost in Weybridge?
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.
Repair and service visits are chargeable. We agree the visit price before we come and quote any parts before fitting them.
What should you do until the engineer arrives in Weybridge?
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.
A garage door fitted with an operator counts as a machine under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, whether it is at home or at work. Whoever puts the complete powered door into service must check it against BS EN 12453, including measuring closing forces with a calibrated meter, and issue a Declaration of Conformity and apply UKCA or CE marking (CE marking in Northern Ireland). That includes motorising an existing manual door, which is why a conversion is always set up and tested as a new powered door.
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 Weybridge customers
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.
Will a new motor be quieter?
A belt-driven operator on a well-balanced door is usually much quieter than an older chain drive.
