Motor Repair & Replacement questions
Q1Should I repair or replace my garage door motor?
It depends on the fault, the age of the unit and whether parts are available. Your technician explains both options and the price before any work.
Q2Why does my motor hum but the door won't open?
Often a broken spring. The opener isn't designed to lift the door's full weight. Stop pressing the button and call us.
Q3Can you program new remotes?
Yes. We can code compatible remotes and check the receiver while we're there.
Q4Do you service openers across Brisbane?
Yes. Call our Brisbane line and we'll arrange a local technician.
