Roller garage door motor replacement in Coventry

What should I know about roller garage door motor replacement in Coventry?
- 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.
- If your control box or receiver can't work with the new motor, a matching one is quoted before fitting.
- Safety edges and photocells are tested with the new motor, and the closing force is checked before handover.
How does it work in Coventry?
The motor is fitted, the limits are set and the door is tested. Any other parts the door needs are quoted before they're fitted.

Rules that apply in Coventry
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 Coventry: questions
Do you cover Coventry?
Yes. Coventry is part of the area we cover in the West Midlands, including CV1, CV3 and CV5. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
How much is a visit in Coventry?
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 Coventry as elsewhere we cover.
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.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Coventry?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Coventry and across CV1, CV3 and CV5, 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 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.
