Product Description

The 1500N is the chain drive option in our sectional and tilt motor range. It is an option for heavier compatible doors, with soft start and stop to control movement at the beginning and end of each cycle.

Remote operation lets you open and close the door without lifting it by hand. An LED courtesy light helps illuminate your garage, and a manual release allows hand operation during a power cut.

The motor needs to be matched to your door’s construction, balance and operating requirements. Contact our team to confirm suitability, particularly for commercial applications or doors that operate frequently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Something else to ask? Call 0800 113 667.

Will the 1500N work with my existing garage door?

The 1500N is an option for heavier compatible garage doors. Send us photos and measurements, and we can check your door’s construction, balance and mounting space to help you choose the right opener.

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.

How does the 1500N differ from the 800N and 1200N?

The 1500N uses a chain drive and is intended for heavier compatible doors, while the 800N and 1200N use belt drives. We can assess your door and recommend the model that suits its size, construction and daily use.

Does the package include remotes?

Two remote controls are listed with our sectional and tilt motor range. Contact us for the exact remote options supplied with your 1500N package or to arrange additional compatible remotes.

Can I control the opener from my phone?

Phone control requires a compatible module and setup. Tell us you would like smartphone access, and we can check the available options and explain the app and network requirements.

Can the 1500N be used on a commercial door?

Contact us to discuss your commercial door and how often it operates. We assess the door size, construction and traffic levels to determine if the 1500N is suitable or recommend another commercial operator.
