How a Lurgan automation visit runs

Match the operator to the door weight
Pull force and duty cycle specified against the actual leaf, not a guess.
- 3
Install power and safety devices
Photocells, force limits and a manual release fitted and tested at the Lurgan property.

Pair, set limits and demonstrate
Travel limits set, handsets and keypad paired, and the manual release shown to whoever uses the door.

Lurgan electric door FAQ
Q.Can any garage door be automated?
Most can, but the door must be balanced and running freely first. Automating a binding door in Lurgan just breaks the motor instead of your back.
Q.Do you supply keypads and external key switches?
Yes, both. Keypads suit families and trades; external key switches suit commercial units around Silverwood Industrial Estate.
Q.Will an operator work with my existing remotes?
Only if they share the rolling-code protocol. Older fixed-code handsets are replaced, and we hand over two paired remotes as standard.
Q.What happens in a power cut?
Every operator we fit includes a manual release cord or external key release, so you can always get the door open. Battery backup is available as an option.
Q.What does automating an existing door cost in Lurgan?
From £395 fitted for a straightforward operator on a sound, well-balanced door. Conversions on old up-and-over gear cost more because of the arm kit and any servicing needed first.
Q.My remote has stopped working, is it the motor?
Usually not. It is most often a battery, a lost pairing or a blocked photocell. We diagnose that on a call-out rather than selling you an operator.
