What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Clevedon?

On electric doors, the safety devices are checked again after the curtain has been refitted.
Photos of the damage and the lath ends help us confirm the visit price and the laths likely to be needed.
New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.
If many laths are damaged, we'll tell you plainly whether a new roller door would be better value.

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.

Structural work

Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.

Damaged lath repairs in Clevedon: questions

Do you cover Clevedon?

Yes. Clevedon is part of the area we cover in Somerset, including BS21. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Clevedon?

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Clevedon and across BS21, where parts are available. If a part is no longer made, we tell you what will fit instead, or price a replacement door if that is the better option.

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

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 Clevedon visit date is confirmed in writing.

How much is a visit in Clevedon?

Prices for damaged lath repairs start from £149 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 Clevedon as elsewhere we cover.

Why do the laths on my roller door slide sideways?

Laths can shift sideways within the curtain over time, which can make their ends catch on the guide rails and damage them further. Don't try to tap them back into place yourself, especially while the door is running. Request a visit, and the engineer will realign or replace the affected laths and check the guides.

My car hit the garage door. Can I still use it?

If the curtain is out of its guides, running at an angle or catching as it moves, stop using it. Switch an electric door off at the isolator, keep people and cars clear of a part-open door, and don't force the curtain. Take photos and request a visit so the engineer can check the laths, guides and motor.
