Electric garage doors have been manufactured with ease-of-use in mind. This idea has been carried over into the area of installation.
Automatic garage door opener units come supplied with a normal 3-pin plug as standard, so will plug into a standard household socket. Yes, there’s none of those funky Euro-only or American plugs to worry about.
The 3-pin plug socket should be situated in relative proximity to the garage door opening (if you have a very long garage); however, if you do not have power available in your garage, we recommend that you contact a certified electrician.

This is very good advice for those thinking of installing their own automatic doors. As a manufacturer we try to provide guidance and we do offer an installation service but often we have no control over the installation process if the clients choose not o use our installations service, so it is good to see reliable advice being given to those who are doing it themselves.
