Somfy Garage Door Motors in Oman

Somfy garage door motors from Doors Auto are electric garage door motors by Somfy: the Dexxo Pro and Dexxo Optimo RTS openers, plus the rail, the control board and the TaHoma Switch hub. Our engineers fit them in Muscat and across Oman.

Choose by door size and weight, by how often the door runs, and by the rail you need. These are remote controlled garage door motors, and the guide below sets out each one with its price and a link to the product.

Somfy garage door motors at Doors Auto are electric garage door motors by Somfy: the Dexxo Pro and Dexxo Optimo RTS openers for family garages, plus the rail, the control board and the TaHoma Switch hub that go with them. Every opener runs on Somfy RTS, and our engineers fit and programme them in Muscat and across Oman.

These are remote controlled garage door motors, and with the TaHoma Switch hub they can become smart garage door openers in Oman, controlled from an app, once we confirm your model. Three things decide which one fits: the size and weight of your door, how many times a day it runs, and which rail suits your garage.

Somfy garage door motors price in Oman

Every price is in Omani rials and every item is in stock at our Muscat shop. The garage door motor price in Oman depends on the opener, the rail and what is in the kit, and fitting is quoted separately once we have seen the door.

Which Somfy garage door motor suits your door

Start with the door, not the price. Measure the opening, estimate the weight, and note how many people use it each day.

Your garageStart with
A standard family door, budget firstDexxo Pro 800 RTS
A larger or heavier door, or a photocell pair in the boxDexxo Pro 1000 3S RTS
A busy family garage, intensive domestic useDexxo Optimo RTS
A damaged rail on a working openerSomfy Dexxo 3.5m rail
A dead opener with a healthy motor and railDexxo Pro 1000 RTS control board

If your door sits between two models, tell us and we will size it with the balance of the door in mind, not only the weight.

The table shows only what each listing publishes. A blank means Somfy has not published the figure, and we confirm it before we quote.

The Optimo costs the most and publishes the least, so choose it for its intensive domestic rating and its listed warranty, not for a published force. The Pro 1000 gives the most published detail for the price.

Sectional garage door opener in Oman: door size, weight and balance

An opener should not carry the full weight of a door. A properly balanced door is held up by its springs, and the opener only moves it. If you can lift the door by hand with ease, it is ready for an opener.

The Dexxo Pro 1000 is listed for sectional and up and over doors up to 15 square metres, and for compatible side opening doors. The Pro 800 and the Optimo do not publish a door area, so we ask for the size and the weight before we quote a fit.

Quiet and energy efficient garage motors: what Somfy publishes

Somfy does not publish a noise figure for these openers, so we do not quote one. What the listings show is a choice of rail. The Dexxo Pro 1000 and the Dexxo Optimo can be fitted with a belt rail, which is the quieter choice for a garage beside or under a bedroom.

On power, the Dexxo Pro 800 and the Dexxo Pro 1000 both list a standby draw of 5W, and the Pro 1000 runs a 24V DC motor from 230V mains. Tell us where the garage sits in the house and we recommend the rail, rather than promise a decibel figure we do not have.

Rail types and cycles per day for a Somfy garage door opener

The rail decides how many cycles each day an opener is rated for. The Dexxo Pro 1000 is rated for up to 20 cycles a day on a standard rail and up to 50 on the high performance rail. The Dexxo Optimo is rated for up to 36,500 openings and closings in intensive domestic use.

RailBest for
ChainA standard family garage, the usual choice
BeltA garage under or beside a bedroom, where quiet matters
High performance chainA busier or heavier door

Tell us how often the door runs, and we recommend the rail.

Remote controlled garage door motors: Somfy RTS remotes

Every opener here runs on Somfy RTS at 433.42 MHz, so it pairs with Somfy RTS handsets. The Dexxo Pro 800 comes with two Somfy Keygo 4 RTS remotes. For spares and extra handsets, see our Somfy remote controls.

BFT, Nice and Came handsets cannot pair with a Somfy RTS opener, because each brand uses its own coding. Somfy io homecontrol, on 868 to 870 MHz, is a different system and does not mix with RTS.

Smart garage door openers in Oman: the Somfy TaHoma Switch

The Somfy TaHoma Switch is a smart home hub that controls Somfy RTS devices from an app, with timers and scenes. That is how a Somfy RTS opener becomes one of the smart garage door openers in Oman that you run from your phone.

RTS is a one way radio, so the app can send an open command to the door but cannot confirm the door has moved. Keep the photocells fitted, and we confirm that your opener works with the hub before we sell it.

Somfy garage door spare parts: rail and control board

If your opener has stopped working, check the cheap faults first: the remote battery, the photocells, the mains supply and the door. A damaged rail or a failed control board can be replaced on its own, provided the motor still works.

What you seeLikely part
A bent or noisy rail, or a door that no longer opens fullyRail
No light and no response, with a healthy mains supplyControl board
A burnt smell or visible damage on the boardControl board, call us

Send us the opener model and a photo, and we confirm the part before you pay.

Power cuts and Somfy garage door motors in Oman

For the Dexxo Pro range, Somfy offers an optional compatible battery that gives limited operation during a power cut. It is not in the kit, so ask us if cuts are a worry in your area. Without a battery, every opener has a manual release, so you can move the door by hand.

Heat and dust: protecting a Somfy garage door opener in Oman

A garage in Oman can reach very high temperatures in summer, and sand gets into every track. Mount the opener inside the garage, away from open vents, and keep the rail and the door tracks clean. Sand wears the carriage and the drive faster than any motor fault.

Garage door opener installation in Muscat: what we need from you

  • The height and width of the door, and its type
  • The weight of the door, or its material
  • A photo of the garage ceiling above the door
  • How many people use the door each day
  • The model of any existing opener, from its label

Send those details through the contact page and we name the opener, confirm the fit and quote the installation.

Somfy garage door motors FAQ

Which Somfy garage door motor should I choose?

Choose the Dexxo Pro 800 for a standard door, the Dexxo Pro 1000 for a heavier door or a published force and a photocell pair in the box, and the Dexxo Optimo for an intensive domestic rating and a 5 year warranty listed by Somfy.

What do Somfy garage door motors cost in Oman?

Openers run from OMR 127.000 to OMR 196.000, in stock at our Muscat shop. A rail or a control board costs OMR 70.000 each, and fitting is quoted separately.

Will a BFT or Nice remote work with Somfy garage door motors?

No. Somfy RTS transmits on 433.42 MHz with its own coding, so BFT, Nice and Came handsets cannot pair with it. You need Somfy RTS handsets.

Do Somfy remote controlled garage door motors come with remotes?

The Dexxo Pro 800 comes with two Somfy Keygo 4 RTS remotes and the Dexxo Pro 1000 comes with two Somfy remotes. The Dexxo Optimo listing does not state remotes, so we confirm before you buy.

Are Somfy smart garage door openers in Oman controlled from a phone?

Yes, through the Somfy TaHoma Switch hub, which controls Somfy RTS devices from an app. RTS is a one way radio, so the app sends the command but cannot confirm the door has moved. We confirm your opener works with the hub first.

Which are the quiet and energy efficient garage motors in the Somfy range?

Somfy does not publish a noise figure for these openers. The Dexxo Pro 1000 and the Dexxo Optimo can be fitted with a belt rail, the quieter choice for a garage beside a bedroom, and the Dexxo Pro 800 and Pro 1000 list a standby draw of 5W.

Can I replace the rail or control board instead of the whole Somfy opener?

Often yes, if the motor still works. We check the opener before we quote, because compatibility depends on the exact model and board version.

Do Somfy garage door motors work in a power cut?

Not by default. For the Dexxo Pro range, Somfy offers an optional compatible battery that gives limited operation, and it is not in the kit. Without it, the door can be released and moved by hand.

Where can I buy electric garage door motors by Somfy in Muscat?

At our shop in Al Khuwair, Muscat. Our engineers fit and programme Somfy garage door motors in Muscat, Sohar, Nizwa, Sur, Salalah, Duqm and across all eleven governorates.
