Choosing a garage door motor
The right garage door motor depends on the size and weight of your door and how often it is used. A light single roller door needs a much smaller operator than a heavy double sectional door. A motor that is only just strong enough will work on the first day and then wear out early, so we match the motor to the door with a margin to spare. We also check the springs, tracks and balance first, because a motor on a badly balanced door fails sooner.
Load shedding and battery backup
Every motor we fit has a manual release, and we recommend battery backup so the door keeps working normally during load shedding. If your existing motor has a battery that no longer holds its charge, we can replace the battery on its own.
Garage door motor repair near me
A garage door motor that has stopped, runs slowly, beeps or reverses for no reason often needs a new battery, gear, limit setting or control board rather than a whole new motor. Tell us your suburb, the motor make if you know it, and what the door is doing, and we will tell you honestly whether it is worth repairing. We repair garage door motors across Johannesburg, Roodepoort, Randburg, Sandton, Centurion, Pretoria and the East and West Rand.
Remotes, keypads and safety
- Extra remotes and wall keypads coded to your motor
- One remote for both the garage door and the property gate, where the motors are compatible
- Safety beams and obstruction detection that stop and reverse the door
- Roller shutter motors for shops and workshops, see industrial roller shutter door motors
