- The engineer shows you how the manual override works on your new motor before handing the door back.
- Safety edges and photocells are tested with the new motor, and the closing force is checked before handover.
- 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.

Roller garage door motor replacement in Nairn: questions

How much is a visit in Nairn?
Prices for roller garage door motor replacement start from £395 inc VAT, and the price is agreed before anyone comes out. Any parts not covered by that price are quoted before they are fitted, so you can decide on the spot. The guide prices are the same in Nairn as elsewhere we cover.
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.
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.
