What should I know about roller garage door motor replacement in Mitcham?
- A compatible tubular motor is fitted inside your existing barrel and wired to the control box on the wall.
- Safety edges and photocells are tested with the new motor, and the closing force is checked before handover.
- If your control box or receiver can't work with the new motor, a matching one is quoted before fitting.
- Motors are matched to your barrel size and curtain weight, not just to the space inside the roller box.

Rules that apply in Mitcham
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 Mitcham: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Mitcham?
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 Mitcham visit date is confirmed in writing.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Mitcham?
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 Mitcham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Mitcham?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Mitcham and across CR4, CR7 and SM4, 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.
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 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.
