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

Check where the override handle would be kept, because you'll need it to open the door by hand during a power cut.
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.
Ask for the Declaration of Conformity and commissioning paperwork at handover, and store it with your other house documents.
If the garage has no other way in, ask whether an external override or a battery backup unit would make sense for power cuts.

Electric roller garage doors in Magherafelt: questions

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Magherafelt?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Magherafelt garage so you can compare.

Is the survey in Magherafelt 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.

What do you check at a survey in BT45?

At a survey in BT45 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.

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

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

Can my existing manual roller door be converted to electric?

Possibly. A manual-to-electric conversion is only practical when the existing curtain, barrel, box and guide rails are sound and compatible with a motor. We check this at a free survey. If the door isn't suitable, we'll say so and price a new electric door instead, so you're not paying to motorise a door that isn't up to it.

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.
