Do you need a replacement Awning Motor in Hampshire?
Should your awning motor need replacing we can come and install a new awning motor which can often be installed onsite rather than taking the awning away. It’s one of the key items that need attention with awnings. We replace awning/sunshade/canopy motors across Hampshire, but also across all surrounding areas.
A new awning motor will fit inside the tubing that the fabric is wrapped around. You will not be able to view it, so we will come to you and establish the make, model, power, diameter, and any adaptors you might need. All these items must be correct for us to fit a new awning motor. We also keep a large range of new awning motors in stock so that we can install a new motor to get your awning up and running again as quickly as possible.
Signs that you may need a new awning motor are:
- Awning motor making a clicking noise
- Awning motor buzzing noise
- Awning motor making a grinding noise
- Awning stuck out
- Awning stuck in
- Awning not retracting
- Awning will not move
- Awning will not respond
- Awning is going in on its own
- Awning is going out on its own
- Awning handset unresponsive
- Awning switch unresponsive
