What should I know about electric roller garage doors in Chester?

Ask for the Declaration of Conformity and commissioning paperwork at handover, and store it with your other house documents.
Work out how many remote fobs the drivers in your household need, so the right number of extra handsets can be listed in the quote.
If the garage has no other way in, ask whether an external override or a battery backup unit would make sense for power cuts.
Find out whether there is a socket or fused spur near the top of the opening, since the motor's control box needs a power supply close by.

Rules that apply in Chester

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.

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.

Electric roller garage doors in Chester: questions

How much do electric roller garage doors cost in Chester?

Our guide price for electric roller garage doors is from £1,195 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Chester as elsewhere we cover.

Do you charge more for Chester than other towns in Cheshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Chester as for anywhere else we cover in Cheshire. 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 I message you a photo of my garage in Chester?

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

Is the survey in Chester really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

Can I open an electric roller door during a power cut?

Yes. Most electric roller doors have a manual override, normally an internal crank or winding handle that turns the barrel by hand. If the garage has no other entrance, ask about an external override. A battery backup unit is another option: it keeps the door running for a limited number of cycles while the power is off.

Can I add more remotes or a keypad later?

Yes. When you order a new door, you can add extra handsets and a wireless keypad at the prices in your quote. On an existing door, adding or recoding remotes, or changing the receiver, is done on a visit whose price is agreed before we come out. Keep a note of how many handsets you have, so any lost ones can be dealt with.
