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

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.
Ask for the Declaration of Conformity and commissioning paperwork at handover, and store it with your other house documents.
Make sure there's a clear spot on the wall inside the garage for the control box, away from shelving or anything stacked in the way.

Electric roller garage doors in Dumfries: questions

Do you cover Dumfries?

Yes. Dumfries is part of the area we cover in Dumfries and Galloway, including DG1 and DG2. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

How much do electric roller garage doors cost in Dumfries?

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 Dumfries as elsewhere we cover.

Do you charge more for Dumfries than other towns in Dumfries and Galloway?

No. Guide prices are the same for Dumfries as for anywhere else we cover in Dumfries and Galloway. 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 you remove my old garage door in Dumfries?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Dumfries address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.

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.
