- Where the cause of a stopped door is unclear, a diagnostic repair visit comes first, before any motor is ordered.
- Motors are matched to your barrel size and curtain weight, not just to the space inside the roller box.

- Safety edges and photocells are tested with the new motor, and the closing force is checked before handover.

Roller garage door motor replacement in Newtownabbey: questions
Will you fix the door on the first visit?
A fault can sometimes be found and put right on the first visit, but we never promise it. If a part needs ordering, we quote for it first, make the door safe where we can, and confirm the return date in writing.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Newtownabbey?
Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Newtownabbey. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you cover Newtownabbey?
Yes. Newtownabbey is part of the area we cover in County Antrim, including BT37, BT36 and BT15. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Newtownabbey?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Newtownabbey and across BT37, BT36 and BT15, where parts are available. If a part is no longer made, we tell you what will fit instead, or price a replacement door if that is the better option.
Can you replace the motor on any make of roller door?
We replace tubular motors on electric roller garage doors of any make, provided a compatible motor is available for the barrel size and curtain weight. Send us details of the control box and the door size and we'll confirm before booking. If a matching motor isn't available, we'll explain the options, including a new control box or a new door.
Will my old remotes work with the new motor?
Sometimes. If your existing control box and receiver stay in place and are compatible, your handsets can be paired again. If the receiver has to change, new rolling-code handsets may be needed. We check this before the visit and include any handsets in the price we confirm, so the cost is clear before the day.
