Can I get app control?

Safety points for Tynemouth 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.

A belt-driven operator on a well-balanced door is usually much quieter than an older chain drive.
