Somfy accessories at Doors Auto cover the parts that keep a Somfy gate or garage door working and safe: control boards, photocells, a limit switch, a warning lamp, an RTS receiver and the TaHoma Switch smart home hub. Our engineers fit and set them up in Muscat and across Oman.

The right part depends on the symptom and on the exact motor, so we ask for the model before we sell anything. This page lists each accessory, what it does and what to check first.

Which Somfy accessory do you need

Start with what you see, then match it to a part. Check the cheap faults first, such as the remote battery and the mains supply.

Somfy control board: Dexxo Pro 1000 and Elixo 500 800

We stock two replacement control boards. The Dexxo Pro 1000 RTS board is for a Somfy Dexxo Pro garage door opener, and the Elixo 500 800 230V RTS board is for the matching Elixo sliding gate motors. Each fits specific models only, so we check the code on your original board before you order.

The Elixo 500 800 board is for the 230V motors. It does not suit the 24V Elixo 500 3S, and the Elixo 2000 is not listed on it. A new board arrives with no remotes stored, so we pair every handset again when we fit it. See the Somfy remote controls for spares.

Somfy photocell: Master Pro Bitech or Reflex PMP12

A photocell stops the gate or door closing on a car, a person or a pet. We stock two, and they work differently.

Master Pro BitechReflex PMP12
TypeTransmitter and receiverReflective, one unit plus a reflector
Supply24 V24 V AC or DC
Protection ratingIP54IP67
Listed rangeNot published12 m in open areas
PriceOMR 23.000OMR 76.000

For a standard villa gate with a post on each side, the Master Pro Bitech is usually enough. For a wide opening, a wall on one side or a harsh, wet or dusty site, the Reflex is the stronger choice. Both are wired parts, and we check your control board before we fit either.

Somfy gate warning lamp: orange blinker light

The orange blinker light flashes while the gate or door moves, so people nearby see it by day and by night. It is not a safety stop, and it works together with the photocells. The lamp must match the voltage of your control board’s lamp output, so we confirm that, and whether the lamp carries the radio aerial, before we sell it.

Somfy Elixo limit switch for sliding gates

The spring limit switch tells a sliding gate motor where to stop. Somfy lists it for the Elixo 500, 800 and 2000 230V RTS motors. The supplier describes it as a genuine part in one place and a compatible spare in another, so we confirm which one you receive before you pay. Fitting means setting the gate’s end positions again, which our engineers do.

Somfy RTS receiver: when do you need one

Somfy RTS motors in our range have the receiver built in, so most customers do not need one. The RTS receiver is for a device that has no Somfy radio of its own, such as a gate on another brand’s board. It may let Somfy handsets or the TaHoma hub run that gate, but it depends on the outputs, so we confirm the wiring first.

Somfy smart home hub in Oman: the TaHoma Switch

The Somfy TaHoma Switch runs Somfy RTS and io homecontrol devices from one app, with timers, scenes and voice control. RTS is a one way radio, so the app can send the command to a gate but cannot confirm that it has moved. Keep the photocells fitted, and we confirm your motor works with the hub before we sell it.

Check before you buy any Somfy part

  • The motor model, from its label
  • A photo of the control board and of the part you want to replace
  • The symptom, described in a sentence or a short video
  • Whether the gate or door is a sliding, swing or garage type
  • Whether you have a working Somfy handset to pair from

With those five details, we name the part and confirm the fit. Send them through the contact page. The spare rail for a garage opener is in the Somfy garage door motors range.

Why our engineers fit Somfy accessories

Boards, photocells and receivers connect to the control board, which sits beside mains parts. A wrong connection can damage the part or leave a safety function switched off while the gate still moves. Our engineers fit each part, set the limits, pair your remotes and test the stop and the reverse before they leave.

Heat, sand and Somfy gate parts in Oman

Gates in Oman take direct sun, sand and, on the coast, salt. Heat dries out moving parts, and sand clogs tracks, limit switches and photocell lenses. Keep the track clear, wipe the lenses and the reflector, and ask us to inspect the motor once a year. A part that fails early often points to a problem the part did not cause.

Somfy accessories FAQ

Which Somfy accessory do I need for my gate?

Tell us the symptom and the motor model. A gate that overruns needs a limit switch check, a gate with no response may need a control board, and a gate that closes on a car needs a photocell.

What do Somfy accessories cost in Oman?

Parts run from OMR 23.000 for a photocell, a limit switch or a warning lamp to OMR 96.000 for the TaHoma Switch hub. Control boards cost OMR 70.000 and OMR 72.000, and fitting is quoted separately.

Which Somfy photocell should I buy?

Choose the Master Pro Bitech for a standard gate with a post on each side. Choose the Reflex PMP12 for a wide opening, one sided mounting or a harsh site, because it has a 12 m range and an IP67 rating.

Will Somfy accessories work with a BFT or Nice gate?

No. Somfy parts are made for Somfy motors and control boards, and Somfy RTS handsets cannot pair with BFT, Nice or Came equipment. Send us your motor model and we confirm.

Can I replace a Somfy control board myself?

We advise against it. The board sits beside mains parts and sets the limits and the safety functions of the gate. Our engineers fit it, pair your remotes and test the safety before they leave.

Do you fit Somfy accessories in Muscat and across Oman?

Yes. Our engineers fit and programme Somfy accessories in Muscat, Sohar, Nizwa, Sur, Salalah, Duqm and across all eleven governorates.
