Roller garage door motor replacement in Magherafelt
When a roller door motor fails in Magherafelt, the rest of the door may still be worth keeping. We'll check that for homes in County Londonderry, and tell you plainly if worn guides, laths or a barrel mean a new door would make more sense.

What should I know about roller garage door motor replacement in Magherafelt?
- Safety edges and photocells are tested with the new motor, and the closing force is checked before handover.
- Remotes and keypads are paired again after the motor is fitted, and each one is tested at the door.
- The open and closed limits are set after fitting, so the door stops fully open and fully closed.
- Motors are matched to your barrel size and curtain weight, not just to the space inside the roller box.

Roller garage door motor replacement in Magherafelt: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Magherafelt?
If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Magherafelt visit date is confirmed in writing.
Can I get a price for Magherafelt without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Do you charge more for Magherafelt than other towns in County Londonderry?
No. Guide prices are the same for Magherafelt as for anywhere else we cover in County Londonderry. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Magherafelt?
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 Magherafelt. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
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.
