How do i diagnose my garage door motor problems?

  • Make sure that the garage door is freely opening and closing when tested without the garage door motor.
  • No garage door should ever fall to the fully closed position, if this occurs, then the garage door springs tension needs to be adjusted.
  • Make sure the garage door traveler engages when placed back into gear.
  • Make sure that garage door motor is supplied with 220 volts ac power “plugs needs to be plugged in and switched on”
  • Make sure that the garage door motor is not on the holiday lock out setting.
  • Most garage door motors beep when troubles are present, like load shedding, low battery conditions.
  • Test the garage door motor via all the remote transmitters, in order to exclude faulty remotes.
  • If the garage door motor cannot open the garage door it might be due to incorrect garage door spring tension.
  • If the garage door motor closes the garage door, but reopens, it means a obstruction might be present. It’s common for objects cause obstructions which will cause a garage door motor to re open on the closing cycle.
  • Most garage door motors work on a chain system, if the chain tension is incorrectly set, then chain slap will be present on a too loose chain tension.
  • On a too tight chain tension, the garage door motor will labor and eat away through its plastic bushes in no time.
  • These plastic bushings should be lubricated at least 6 months apart depending on operation cycles & garage door installation condition.
  • Force adjustment settings are done via the garage door motor controller card.
  • Care should be taken not to set the force too high as this will cause premature failure of the garage door motor gearbox system.
  • A too high force adjustment on a garage door motor, can cause serious injury to a person or children when being operated.
  • The most common garage door motors are the ET DC Blue Pico/ Advance, Gemini GDO, Centurion SD04, Digi door range, Pro Alpha & Magic lift.

History of Garage door motors:

  • The first garage door motors to enter the domestic market was the Digi door 1, Pro Alpha and Coroma garage door motors.
  • All of these were 220 volt ac garage door motors.
  • All were all very strong and reliable and not maintenance was needed to kept them operating garage doors.
  • The only down side to the older 220 volt ac garage door motors were, that when power outages were present, they would not be able to operate. At that point in time, power outages were not a common aspect and thus the garage door motor would hardly be used manually.
  • This garage door motor range was later replaced by the Digi door 2 garage door motors and Pro Alpha 2000 garage door motors.
  • These new model garage door motors were still very reliable and strong but still only operated via 220 volt ac power.
  • What was great about these garage door motors were the fact that they would just keep on running and no maintenance were needed to keep the garage door motors running in tip top condition.
  • Exquisite Security has at least one site, which is still operated by a Digi door 1 sectional garage door motor.
  • It again shows that the old products were quality made for long life expectancy of around 20 years.
  • The latter Digi door 2 and Pro Alpha garage door motor models were well known for operating two steel roll-up garage doors simultaneously. This was a cost saving installation for clients.
  • Regulations on garage door motor installations changed and advised, that only a single garage door was to be automated by a garage door motor in order to have the installation certified as being safe. These regulations paved the way for more garage door motors to be sold.
  • Advancement in technology saw the introduction of 12 and 24 volt dc operated garage door motor systems which had battery backup systems on the garage door motors.
  • The best garage door motors at that point in time were the ET DC blue garage door motor range.
  • This was a very good garage door motor as it also was a battery back up system. This means, that the garage door motor could be run without any batteries fitted, or if when batteries were fitted, the garage door motor would still be operational when power outages occurred.
  • Centurion systems also joined into the garage door motor market with their X-tract garage door motor system.
  • Other manufacturers also joined into the manufacturing and supplying of garage door motors.
  • These were Magic lift, Roos garage door motors, My Kingdom, DACE Lazer garage door motors and DTS 600 garage door motors.
  • Digi 24, Digi ONE and Digi door 3, Gemini garage door motors also saw the light.
  • Many of the garage door motors found were later imported and branded by their suppliers.
  • Over a twenty years period, Exquisite Security has build up extensive knowledge on the inner workings of all garage door motors.
  • Working with the different garage door motors, one quickly noticed what garage door motors worked well, which were reliable and trouble free and which garage door motors were not to be recommended.

The garage door motors which stood out were:

Currently standing out are:

  • Digi door two and Pro Alpha garage door motors, but they have since been discontinued and parts are no longer available for these garage door motors.
  • The ET Dc blue range, which later changed to the ET DC Blue digital and currently the ET DC Blue Advanced Pico and Advanced garage door motor for sectional garage doors.
  • It is preferred to automate sectional garage doors with the ET DC Blue Pico/ Advanced sectional garage motors.
  • All steel roll-up garage doors to be automated with ET DC Blue Advance roll up garage door motors.
  • ET Nice manufacturers are situated in Eden vale area and thus after sales service is exceptionally good.
  • Gemini GDO 24 volt garage door motors.
  • Gemini is also the only garage door motor system that supplies a system on which two roll up garage doors can be automated by one garage door motor controller / motor.
  • The Gemini range of garage door motors are well known in the Pretoria region as they are manufactured in Silverton by DMI Engineering.
  • Parts availability is not a concern when fitment of this garage door motor is done.
  • All of the current garage door motor systems do use a worm shaft and main gear system “wiper motor system” and thus it is commonly found that the factory fitted grease/ lubricant is not adequate to prevent premature wear and tear on the gears.
  • It is advised that the gearbox system be inspected, periodically and proper lubricant added to extend the gearbox system life.

Garage door motor gearbox systems:

  • Looking back at garage door motors, it is commonly found that garage door motor gearboxes fail due to the incorrect tension on the garage door springs.
  • The newer type of garage door motor, ET DC Blue Advance and Pico, Gemini GDO, DTS 600 and Magic lift garage door motors all have wiper motor gearbox systems which do fail much quicker.
  • Garage door motors life span has decreased from 20 years to around 6 years and even less where installations of garage door motors and systems are not correctly maintained.
