Looking after your
garage door
Tips on maintenance for your new AlluGuard 77 and
AlluGuard 55 Garage Door.
Your garage door is low maintenance:
✓ The curtain needs wiping with a damp cloth and a mild
detergent to remove any excessive dirt/grime to maintain
its appearance and to reduce the risk of the surface being
damaged.
✓ This must be done at least monthly in a salt air coastal
environment.
✓ Marks on the paint nish can be cleaned with many types of
car polish.
✓ Chips in the paint work should be touched up to prevent
corrosion of the metal.
✓ The power to the garage door should be isolated before
washing or repairing the paintwork.
✓ The motor and curtain have been designed to be lubrication
free so you must not oil or grease the guide rails.
✓ Make sure no foreign items get collected in the guides i.e:
stones, sticks, paper etc.
✓ Make sure foreign objects are not embedded into the safety
edge rubber.
Additional information
for electrically
operated products
Your door should run smoothly and
easily as the motor is not designed to
over-come problems of a badly running
or damaged door. If necessary contact
your approved installer for repair.
The motor should be stopping on the
limits and not over-running (indicated
by buzzing) when the door hits the
oor or the open stops.
N.B. Always isolate the power before
attempting to make any adjustments or
repairs. Untrained users are advised to
contact an approved installer.

Somfy
Operating
Instructions
Electrically Operated Products
Whenever possible the garage door should be
operated when it is in view, making sure it is not
obstructed. Ensure when the curtain is running,
that you and any other person stands clear of
the curtain and keeps hands etc. away from the
moving parts. Children should not operate the
door or play nearby an opening door.
Control Unit
Please note the front of the control unit should
only be removed by a trained engineer. Your
garage door can be activated by pressing and
releasing the buttons on the front of the control
unit, the button on your remote handset, or a
separate wall switch that you may have installed.
Hand Transmitters
The transmitters are tted with two, three or four
buttons and when any button is pressed the LED
illuminates.
The buttons on remotes can be programmed to
suit your requirements (dependent on handset
type). The default setting is one button operation
that allows you to lift, stop and close the door.
PLEASE NOTE
When opening or closing the garage door you
must monitor the product until it has completed
its operation. If the product is tted with a safety
device this could be activated during its operation
which would cause the door to stop and reopen a
short distance leaving the door partly open.
Batteries
The expected life span of batteries is 2 years;
however high usage of the door will lead to a
decrease in this.
Batteries are not covered under warranty.

Safety
Safety edge
The Safety Edge is tted to the bottom of the
door and is activated when the door starts to
close. If it comes into contact with an object while
the door is closing, it transmits a signal to the wall
mounted control unit, the door will then stop and
reopen a short distance.
The safety edge also works as a weather seal,
designed to be pressed against the ground. The
bottom slat transmitter\cable has an IP rating
of IP54 and is protected against dust and water
splashing.
Safety Devices
The standard remote control receiver unit is
supplied with either an electrical wireless safety
edge or optical wired safety edge.
To operate:
Hold crank handle in
line with eye and rotate
handle until the door
reaches the
open/closed
position.
To operate:
Externally tted doors will need
the cover cap or
override lock removing
and the crank handle inserting.
Rotate
handle until the
door reaches
the open/closed
position.
To operate:
Remove lock and insert crank
handle and rotate until door
reaches the open/close position.
DO NOT OVERWIND
When the main power is reinstalled, ensure
that the power isolator is switched back on.
If applicable secure the handle back onto the
wall. Remember to keep the crank handle in a
convenient place.
Power Failure
Electrically Operated Products
If your roller garage door is not working
correctly please contact your installer for
assistance. N.B: Always isolate the power before
attempting to make an adjustment or repair.
Untrained operators are advised to contact an
approved installer.
Power failure
In the event of disruption to the power supply,
or the motor temporarily over heating (the
motor is protected by a thermal cut out), the
door can be operated manually. Isolate power
supply before using the manual override.
To operate: Hold crank handle in line with eye
and rotate handle until the door reaches the
open/closed position.
If the door is not used during the power
failure then no action has to be taken as
the unit will reset itself when the power is
restored.
Important
If the garage has no service door then an
exterior release kit should have been tted
to allow emergency opening from outside.
Follow instructions supplied with that kit.
Note
When closing the door manually ensure that the
locking joints are set in the fully closed position to
ensure security.
Insert the hooked end of the winding handle into
the override eye; this is projecting downwards from
the drive motor at one end of the curtain roll, rotate
the handle to operate the door to open or close.

2. Check Headroom
3. Preparing the Guide Rails
The headroom is the clear vertical height required between the top of the guide rails and any obstruction
above the shutter as shown in Fig 1 and Fig 2.
This space is required to house the door roll headroom of 205mm / 300mm is required. (AG55 requires 205mm
& AG77 requires 300mm).
Limited Head room
If insucient headroom is available the door can still be tted (see your survey sheet) but the shorter guide
rails will give a corresponding reduction in door opening height as shown in Fig 3. The curtain will require 1
lath to be removed for every 75mm of reduction in the guide height.
Note: Ensure that the headroom above the guides is clear of any obstructions (especially small protrusions or
nail heads) which could cause damage to the door roll during installation/operation.
3.1 For Fitting Within The Aperture
3.1.1 Check Guide Rail Length
Check that guide rails have been supplied to the correct length as per your survey sheet / order. The correct
length is aperture height less 205mm or 300mm as shown in Fig 1.
3.1.2 Drill Fixing Holes
Drill holes through 7mm diameter and counter drill 11mm diameter as shown in Fig 4.
A minimum three holes per rail are required, positioned as shown in Fig 5.
NB. Position holes for best xing to brickwork.
3.2 For Fitting Behind The Aperture
3.2.1 Check Guide Rail Length
Check that guide rails have been supplied to the correct length as per your survey sheet/order.
A. Where headroom of 205mm / 300mm or more is available guide rail length equals aperture height as
shown in Fig 6.
B. Where only limited headroom is available guide rail length equals total available height less 205mm /
300mm as shown in Fig 7.

5. Install the Frame
You will have drilled your guide rails, as shown in Fig 4 or Fig 8, for tting either:-
a) Within the aperture b) Behind the aperture
Please proceed accordingly. (SAFETY NOTE: 2 people required)
5.1 Fitting Within Aperture
For installation within the aperture we strongly recommend the use of a cover box as this covers and protects
the door curtain roll.
5.2 If either half box or full box options are specied these will be supplied factory tted to the end plates.
5.3 Lift the frame assembly into position and align with the front of
the aperture.
Ensure the guide rails are VERTICAL (in both directions) and parallel
to each other, at the same height and the correct distance apart.
NB: Some width adjustment is available on the sliding shaft end of
the axle.
The correct distance is shown in Fig13. – AG77 Door
Ensure the axle assembly is horizontal by using a spirit level.
5.1.3 Once the frame is correctly positioned, mark and drill for xings (xings not supplied).
5.1.4 When the guide rails are securely xed, double check that they are vertical, parallel and correct distance
apart and that the axle assembly is level.
5.4 Fixing The Head Plates
Fix the head-plates into position ensuring that the head-plates are level and that the locating pegs are fully
located into the guide section. Fix securing screws through back of head-plate and attach securely to the wall.
Where a back box is tted it may be necessary to x the back box to the opening header to stop any marking
of the curtain during door operation. If additional xings are required in the back box, use countersunk screws,
ensuring that the screw heads do not protrude, as curtain damage could occur.
Always ensure that the back box is adequately xed to eliminate any rubbing of the curtain on the
back box during the door operation.
The safety brake and back plate are tted to the end plate as standard (Fig 10). Remove the 10mm nuts and
washers from the bottom two xings on the safety brake. Remove the safety brake and t it to the end of the
shaft with a 20mm M6 bolt and washer (Fig 10a). Re ax the brake to the end plate and t the safety collar to
the dummy end, tight up to the shaft (Fig 10a).
4.3 Fit Guide Rails
Select R/H guide rail and slide fully onto the bottom square tube spigot projecting from the R/H end plate,
please ensure that the End Plate is ush with the face side of the guide rail.
Repeat for the L/H guide rail as shown in Fig 12.
Fig 12
Fig 13

16 17
5.5 Fitting Behind Aperture
Lift the frame assembly into position and align centrally with the aperture. Ensure the guide rails are vertical (in
both directions) and are parallel to each other, at the same height and the correct distance apart.
NOTE: Some width adjustment is available on the sliding shaft end of the axle. The correct distance apart is
shown in Fig 13.
Ensure axle assembly is horizontal by using a spirit level.
5.6 Once the frame is correctly positioned, mark and drill for xings (xings not supplied).
5.7 When guide rails are securely xed, double check for vertical, parallel and correct spacing and that the axle
is level.
NOTE: Once the frame is fully tted and checked, use the plastic plugs supplied to cover the xing holes in the
guide rails to give a‘fully nished’eect.
5.8 Fixing the Head Plates
Fix the head-plates into position ensuring that the head-plates are level and that the locating pegs are fully
located into the guide section. Fix securing screws through back of head-plate and attach securely to the wall.
Where a back box is tted it may be necessary to x the back box to the opening header to stop any marking
of the curtain during door operation. If additional xings are required in the back box, use countersunk screws,
ensuring that the screw heads do not protrude, as curtain damage could occur.
Always ensure that the back box is adequately xed to eliminate any rubbing of the curtain on the
back box during the door operation.
6. Installing the Curtain Assembly
6.1 Carefully unwrap and remove the outer bubble wrap protection and place over shaft to stop damage to
inside of curtain during installation.
6.2 Carefully position the curtain assembly in the door aperture, below the axle as shown in Fig 14, slit the
packaging to gain access to the curtain but leave some packaging to protect the curtain.
6.3 SAFETY NOTE: A minimum two people are required for this procedure to ensure safe handling.
6.4 It is essential to place sections of bubble wrap over the axle to prevent marking the curtain as it is installed.
6.5 Using minimum 2 people carefully lift the curtain assembly up level with the axle. Practice has shown that
it is best to place one hand on the axle, keeping that arm straight, and support the curtain roll on that shoulder
as shown in Fig 15.
6.6 Feed the bottom lath over the top of the axle and down between the guide rails, as shown in Fig 16 taking
care not to scu the curtain assembly, proceed until half of the curtain has been fed over the axle, carefully
unroll the remaining curtain until this is balanced over the shaft, once this is done carefully feed the curtain
into the guide until the curtain is reaches the oor.
NOTE: Do not let the curtain ‘free fall’over the axle as this will result in damage to the Curtain and/or the
Safety Edge Transmitter.

Ellard Motor Limit Set-up
9.4 Limit Switch Adjustment (see Fig 22)
The limits are set at the factory to 8 revolutions of the shaft, A 4mm
‘Allen Key’ limit adjuster is used to adjust them further.
Allow the motor to run downwards without the curtain attached
to enable the shaft to determine bottom limit position, without
curtain attached to shaft.
9.5 Adjustment ‘Up’
Run the motor up with the curtain attached, if the motor stops
short of fully open, turn the adjusting screw in the + direction (this
is the adjuster indicated by the rotation of the barrel. This will allow
the motor to run on in the up direction.
Stop the motor before it gets to the fully open position and wind
the adjuster in the – direction until it stops before the fully open
position. Keep the open button pressed and at the same time
slowly turn the adjuster in the + direction until the door stops
at the fully open position. If the motor runs too high, turn the
adjustment screw towards the - direction until the motor stops in
the correct position.
9.6 Adjustment ‘Down’
Run the motor down, if the motor stops short of the closed
position, turn the adjustment screw towards the + direction
keeping the control pressed in the down direction until the correct
position is reached.
If the motor runs too far turn the adjustment screw towards the –
direction.
Set open position as shown in Fig 21.
9.7 Checking the Limit Positions
Run the motor in both directions until the limit switches cut out the motor travel.
Carry out any ne adjustments. One turn of the adjustment screw corresponds to approximately 70° turn
of the roller tube.
In order that the locking joints
operate eectively, the position
of the shaft in the closed position
needs to be nely adjusted.
Do not adjust past this position as
this will impose excessive loads on
the mechanism.
This motor is tted with a thermal
trip; this stops the motor from
overheating.
Be aware that excessive running of
the door may cause the thermal trip
to operate, if this happens; please
wait 20 minutes before trying to
operate the door again.
