Installing Garage Door Motors in Coffs Harbour

Long-Lasting Motors, Affordable Prices

While some prefer manually operated garage doors, some enjoy garage doors that do all the work for you. Motors can be applied to all types of garage doors and will save you the hassle of getting in and out of your car. Not only that, modern-day motors are very quiet and don't use as much energy as previous models—some can even come with battery backup so that the unit can still be used if there is no external power. This will mean you don't have to think twice about putting your car in the garage any time of the night or day.


Here at Coffs Garage Doors & Motors, we can fit motors when installing a brand-new garage door to residential homes or commercial spaces. We can also install motors to pre-existing garage doors. This is a good compromise for those wanting to automate their garage door without wanting the expense of replacing the whole door.


On top of that, our experienced team can perform routine maintenance and any repairs needed on your garage door motor on the same day. We even offer a 24-hour emergency repair service for urgent problems that need immediate repair.

We're committed to your safety and security, so contact us today for a quote on garage door motors or call for 24-hour emergency repairs.

How to Prolong the Life of Your Motor

Ensuring your garage door motor lasts as long as possible requires regular maintenance and a few preventive measures. By taking care of your motor, you can avoid costly repairs and extend its lifespan significantly. Be sure to:


  • Use Silicone-Based Lubricant: Lubricate the moving parts of your garage door, such as the rollers, tracks and hinges, to reduce friction and prevent wear. Use a silicone-based lubricant every six months to keep the motor running smoothly.
  • Tighten Hardware: Inspect and tighten all hardware, including bolts and screws, regularly. Vibrations from the motor can cause these parts to loosen over time, leading to misalignment and increased strain on the motor.
  • Balance the Door: Check the balance of your garage door by disconnecting the opener and manually lifting the door halfway. If it doesn’t stay in place, it might be unbalanced, causing extra stress on the motor; call a professional to adjust the springs.
  • Inspect & Replace Weatherstripping: Examine the weatherstripping at the bottom of the garage door and replace it if it’s cracked or worn. This prevents dirt and debris from entering the garage and affecting the motor's operation.
  • Keep the Tracks Clean: Regularly clean the tracks to remove any dirt, dust, or debris that can hinder the door’s movement. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the tracks, ensuring smooth operation and less strain on the motor.
