Effortless Control at your Fingertips

Opening your garage has never been easier. 

Our transmitter enables you to operate your door from up to 100 feet away - perfect for opening the door from your hallway or as you pull into the driveway, and generates a brand new security code every time the remote is used, preventing any type of signal hacking. 

Need more than one remote? We can easily programme additional transmitters or install extra wall buttons for your convenience. 

Safety First With Automatic Garage Doors

Modern automatic garage doors are designed with your family's safety and wellbeing in mind. Our doors typically operate within 10 to 20 seconds and include auto-reverse sensors and visual assurance. If the door detects an obstruction, it will immediately stop and reverse to the fully open position, as well as designed for smooth, silent, and reliable movement each time.

Automatic Garage Door Options

Tailor your garage to fit your specific needs with these popular add-ons: 

PIN Code Entry

A weather resistant keypad mounted to the frame. Perfect for when you're out for a run or the kids get home from school without a key. 

Automated Lighting

The internal garage light activates the moment the door moves, staying on for 3 minutes to guide you safely inside during dark winter evenings. 

Manual Bypass

Power failure? No problem. An internal release cable allows for manual operation. If your garage has no other entrance, we can install an external key release. 

FAQs – Electric Garage Doors

Most commonly asked questions about Electric Garage Doors

With an automatic garage door opener, you can effortlessly open and close the door simply by pressing a button on your remote control. This convenient feature allows you to access your garage from the comfort of your car.

For homeowners, it is essential to know how to manually open a garage door in case of a lost remote or power outage. Every automatic garage door has a bypass that disconnects the powered carriage and enables manual operation.

It is strongly advised to have a qualified garage door expert perform periodic maintenance on your automatic garage door. This should be done annually.

The moment the garage door makes physical contact with an obstruction, its sensors detect it automatically.

Life expectancy for garage doors is determined by their usage. According to experts, a well-constructed, regularly maintained garage door can last anywhere from 15 to 30 years, taking into account local climate conditions. Additionally, automatic garage door openers generally offer around 10 to 15 years of dependable operation.

When lowering the garage door, the springs gain tension, and when raising it, that tension is released to assist with the lifting. It's worth noting that the springs have the highest tension when the door is closed, which is why they often break in this position.

Utilizing a secure digital rolling code, the remote generates a unique signal which is then caught by the receiver. Depending on the desired action, the receiver will either open or close the door accordingly.
