What should I know about roller garage door motor replacement in Stevenage?
- A compatible tubular motor is fitted inside your existing barrel and wired to the control box on the wall.
- The open and closed limits are set after fitting, so the door stops fully open and fully closed.
- Remotes and keypads are paired again after the motor is fitted, and each one is tested at the door.
- If your control box or receiver can't work with the new motor, a matching one is quoted before fitting.

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.

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 Stevenage: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Stevenage?
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 Stevenage visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Stevenage?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Stevenage and across SG1, SG2 and SG4, 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 I message you a photo of my garage in Stevenage?
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 Stevenage. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
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.
