What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Banstead?

Damaged laths are slid out of the curtain and replaced individually, without replacing the whole door.
New laths can look slightly different from weathered ones, and we'll say so before any laths are ordered.
On electric doors, the safety devices are checked again after the curtain has been refitted.
New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.

How does it work in Banstead?

The engineer replaces the damaged laths and refits and tests the curtain. Any other parts are quoted before they're fitted.

Rules that apply in Banstead

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 Banstead: questions

Will you fix the door on the first visit?

A fault can sometimes be found and put right on the first visit, but we never promise it. If a part needs ordering, we quote for it first, make the door safe where we can, and confirm the return date in writing.

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

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 Banstead visit date is confirmed in writing.

Can I get a price for Banstead without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

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

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 Banstead. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Do you replace laths on insulated roller doors?

Yes. We replace damaged laths on single-skin and insulated roller garage doors of any make, provided matching laths are available. Insulated laths are double-skinned aluminium filled with foam, and they come in different heights, so the new laths are matched to your curtain's size and profile.

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.
