Since 1992, Prestige Doors have led the market in quality garage doors. All our garage doors come equipped with advanced motors with convenience, security, and durability in mind. You can forget about the hassle of lifting your door manually—our smart motor systems handle the heavy work for you. Our motors also come with safety features that bring you peace of mind like obstruction detection – they’ll halt the door if something’s in the way, keeping your family, pets, and belongings safe.
Automatic Garage Door Opener Motors
At Prestige Doors, we partner with BnD for their Tempo DC Motor, Smart Motors, and recently introduced heavy-duty motor, all known for exceptional performance and reliability. The Tempo DC motor is engineered for smooth, efficient operation and features a powerful motor, soft start/stop technology, and a belt-driven system for whisper-quiet performance. With garage doors becoming larger and heavier over time, BnD’s heavy-duty motor is built to handle the increased demands, ensuring dependable operation for both residential and commercial applications.
Smart Technology Integration
For those seeking smart connectivity so you can control the garage door through your phone or other wi-fi enabled device remotely, the Smart garage door motor offers the same high-performance features as the Tempo DC motor but with the added benefit of smartphone control. This allows users to remotely open, close, and monitor their garage door via a mobile app through any wi-fi enabled device such as your phone or tablet. The remote app and system includes easily customisable settings, usage tracking, and controlled access, enabling homeowners to grant secure entry to family members or trusted visitors.
Benefits of Garage Door Motors
Garage door motors are at the heart of Prestige’s designer garage door range products and accessories, combining effortless functionality, enhanced security, and energy efficiency. Whether it’s the convenience of remote access or the added safety features, an automatic garage door motor eliminates the hassle of manual operation. Our belt-driven motors offer exceptionally quiet operation, making them perfect for homes with attached garages or properties requiring noise reduction. Designed to work with various types of sectional doors, our motors provide a tailored solution for every property.
Key Considerations When Choosing a Garage Door Motor
Selecting the right garage door opener and motor depends on several important factors. Here’s what to consider when choosing the best system for your home or business:
Type of Garage Door
The design and weight of your garage door determine the type of motor required. Roller doors need a compact motor with smooth vertical movement, whereas sectional garage doors require a motor capable of handling multiple panels. For larger, heavier, or custom-made doors, a high-torque motor with greater lifting capacity is essential.
Frequency of Use
For homes with high-traffic garages or commercial properties where garage doors are in frequent operation, selecting a high-frequency motor is crucial. Features like soft start and stop technology help reduce wear and prolong the lifespan of both the door and motor components.
Noise Levels
For properties with attached garages, noise reduction is a key consideration. Belt-driven motors or models with sound-dampening technology provide smooth, near-silent operation, minimising disturbance inside the home.
Safety & Compliance
Ensuring your garage door motor includes integrated safety sensors is essential for preventing accidents or damage. iBeam safety sensors detect obstructions and automatically halt closing doors, ensuring the protection of people, pets, and belongings. Additionally, for smartphone-controlled garage doors, New Zealand regulations require safety beams for compliance and enhanced security.
Property Location & Power Supply
For homes in rural areas or locations prone to power outages, opting for a garage door motor with a battery backup system is highly recommended. This ensures your garage door continues to function even during electricity disruptions, providing uninterrupted access and security.
