Magento 1 to Magento 2 Migration in Lisburn
Moving Lisburn retailers from Magento 1 to Magento 2, where the name suggests an upgrade and the reality is a rebuild. Only data carries across — the theme is recreated, extensions are replaced with their Magento 2 equivalents or rewritten, and customisations built over years exist only as a specification for what to build again.
Why this comes up
The problem
The store is still running Magento 1, which stopped receiving security patches years ago.
What you get
What we deliver
- The rebuild scoped honestly, since only data migrates automatically
- Extensions inventoried, with a replacement or rewrite decided for each
- Custom functionality specified from the existing behaviour rather than assumed
- Products, customers and order history migrated and reconciled
- Theme rebuilt on Magento 2 rather than ported from the old one
- The security position addressed, as unsupported software is a live exposure

Magento 1 to Magento 2 Migration in Lisburn — common questions
- Why is this not an upgrade?
- Because Magento 2 is a different codebase. Themes, extensions and custom modules written for Magento 1 do not run on it, so what happens is a new build receiving the old data — and estimating it as an upgrade is how these projects overrun.
- How urgent is the security position?
- It deserves treating seriously. Magento 1 stopped receiving official security patches in 2020, and a shop taking card details on unsupported software is a question your payment provider and your insurer may both eventually ask about.
- What happens to our extensions?
- Each needs a decision. Some vendors offer a Magento 2 version, some have disappeared, and some functionality now exists in the core — so an inventory with a resolution per extension is the single most useful piece of preparation before any estimate.
- Should we consider a different platform instead?
- It is a fair question to ask at this point. Since the work is a rebuild rather than an upgrade, the comparison against a hosted platform is more even than it would normally be — and for stores whose requirements have simplified over the years, that is worth examining before committing.
- Do you work with businesses across County Antrim?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Lisburn and the surrounding County Antrim area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Lisburn businesses do you usually work with?
- Retail and light manufacturing systems for businesses serving the greater Belfast catchment. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Retail, Logistics, Food Production and Professional Services.
- Do you cover the areas around Lisburn?
- Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Newry, Bangor. Lisburn is an urban area of roughly 120,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Antrim region rather than the city boundary alone.
