Garage door motor replacement and upgrades in Stourbridge: what to expect

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 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.

What can you choose for your Stourbridge garage?

  • PhotocellsAdded or replaced.
  • Manual-to-electric conversionWith safety set-up.
  • Like-for-like replacementNew operator and rail.
  • Belt drive upgradeQuieter running.

Safety points for Stourbridge 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.

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.
