What should I know about battery backup and safety upgrades in Feltham?

You're shown how to test the safety edge and photocells monthly, following the manufacturer's instructions for your door.
A pressure-sensitive safety edge on the bottom rail stops or reverses the door if it touches something while closing.
Where a door has never had photocells, any extra wiring needed is priced before we come out.
Photocells mounted either side of the opening stop the door closing while anything is breaking the beam.

Rules that apply in Feltham

Powered door safety

Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.

Battery backup and safety upgrades in Feltham: questions

What should I do while I wait for a visit in Feltham?

If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Feltham visit date is confirmed in writing.

How much is a visit in Feltham?

Prices for battery backup and safety upgrades start from £99 inc VAT, and the price is agreed before anyone comes out. Any parts not covered by that price are quoted before they are fitted, so you can decide on the spot. The guide prices are the same in Feltham as elsewhere we cover.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Feltham?

Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Feltham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Do you charge more for Feltham than other towns in Greater London?

No. Guide prices are the same for Feltham as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

Can safety devices be added to an older electric door?

Usually, if a compatible safety edge or photocells are available for the control box. Some older systems need extra wiring or a replacement control box first. Tell us what's on the control box label and we'll confirm whether it can be done, and the price, before booking the visit.

Do I still need the manual override if I have a battery backup?

Yes. A battery unit covers a limited number of cycles, and it can run down during a long power cut or as the battery ages. Keep the override handle somewhere you can find it in the dark, and make sure everyone who uses the garage knows where it is and how it works.
