I have a Securoglide Compact garage door about 10 yrs old.
The rubber safety strip at the bottom has shrunk away from the ends so the safety circuit does not work and you have to hold the "down" button in for the entire distance.
Apparently it has two copper wires in it which are shorted together when the strip encounters an obstacle, but has been replaced by a different type of safety edge with optical detection.
Have had a new motor fitted but the installer says to convert safety edge to new type will also need a new control unit and will cost an additional ~£500 on top of the motor.
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement strip of the old type? Needs to be ~2200 mm long.
