Product Description
The 1200N makes everyday garage access easier with remote operation and a belt drive system. Soft start and stop control movement at the beginning and end of each cycle, while the LED courtesy light helps illuminate your garage.
With a maximum operating force of 1200 N and a rated force of 450 N, this model offers more operating force than the 800N. The right choice still depends on your door’s approved limits, balance, travel and mounting requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Something else to ask? Call 0800 113 667.
Will the 1200N work with my existing garage door?
The 1200N can be fitted to compatible residential sectional and tilt doors. Send us photos and measurements, and we can check your door’s condition, balance and mounting space to help you confirm the fit before ordering.
Can I open the door during a power cut?
Yes. The opener has a manual release so you can operate the door by hand. We recommend adding the optional battery backup so you can keep using the motor during a power cut. Ask our team to include a compatible battery backup with your order. If your garage has no other entrance, ask us about a compatible external emergency release.

Both models use belt drives with soft start and stop. The 1200N provides more operating force, with a maximum of 1200 N and a rated force of 450 N, compared with 800 N and 350 N for the 800N. We can help you choose the right model for your door.
Does the package include remotes?
Yes. The package includes two remote controls, so you can keep one in each vehicle or share access with another household member.
Can I control the opener from my phone?
