- A compatible tubular motor is fitted inside your existing barrel and wired to the control box on the wall.
- If your control box or receiver can't work with the new motor, a matching one is quoted before fitting.

Rules that apply in Workington
Powered door safety
Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.
Electrics
An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.
Roller garage door motor replacement in Workington: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Workington?
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 Workington. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Workington?
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 Workington visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Workington?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Workington and across CA14, 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.
Do you cover Workington?
Yes. Workington is part of the area we cover in Cumbria, including CA14. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
Why does my roller door motor hum but not move?
A humming motor that doesn't turn the barrel can mean the motor has failed, but it can also point to an obstruction, a curtain jammed in the guides or a fault in the control box. Stop pressing the button, keep clear of the door and don't force the curtain. A repair visit diagnoses the cause before any parts are quoted.
Does a new motor change how the manual override works?
It can. Different motors use different override arrangements, such as an internal crank or a winding handle. The engineer shows you how the override on your new motor works before leaving, and you should keep the handle somewhere you can find it in the dark. Our power-cut guide explains how overrides work in general.
