Roller garage door motor replacement in Rugby
A motor that hums, cuts out or won't turn the barrel isn't always the motor at fault. For homes in Rugby and elsewhere in Warwickshire, we can diagnose the problem first, then quote for a new motor only if it's needed.

What should I know about roller garage door motor replacement in Rugby?
- The open and closed limits are set after fitting, so the door stops fully open and fully closed.
- 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.
- Safety edges and photocells are tested with the new motor, and the closing force is checked before handover.

Rules that apply in Rugby
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 Rugby: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Rugby?
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 Rugby visit date is confirmed 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.
How much is a visit in Rugby?
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 Rugby as elsewhere we cover.
Can I get a price for Rugby 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.
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.
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.
