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

If the garage has no other way in, ask whether an external override or a battery backup unit would make sense for power cuts.
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.
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.
Think about how everyone in the house will open the door, whether by remote fob, wall keypad, key switch or a phone app.

Rules that apply in England

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.

Questions about electric roller garage doors in Devon

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Devon?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

Which towns do you cover in Devon?

We cover Devon, including Plymouth, Exeter, Paignton and Torquay. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in Devon online.

Can I get a price without anyone visiting?

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

Why does my electric door start closing and then go back up?

That usually means a safety device thinks something is in the way. Check nothing is in the opening, wipe the photocell lenses and look for damage to the rubber safety edge on the bottom rail. If it keeps happening, stop using the door and ask for a repair visit, which is priced and agreed before anyone comes out.

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.
