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

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.
Check where the override handle would be kept, because you'll need it to open the door by hand during a power cut.
Consider whether children, pets or bikes are often near the opening, and plan to test the safety edge or photocells every month.

Rules that apply in Arbroath

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Part P does not apply in Scotland, but electrical work must meet BS 7671 and the Scottish building standards where it forms part of building work.

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 Arbroath: questions

What do you check at a survey in DD11?

At a survey in DD11 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.

Do you charge more for Arbroath than other towns in Dundee and Angus?

No. Guide prices are the same for Arbroath as for anywhere else we cover in Dundee and Angus. 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 get a price for Arbroath 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 you remove my old garage door in Arbroath?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Arbroath 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 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.

Is an electric roller door safe around children and pets?

Treat it like any powered machine. Keep remote fobs out of children's reach, don't let anyone walk or play under the door while it's moving, and only operate it when you can see the opening is clear. The safety devices are a backstop, not a substitute for watching the door, so test them monthly.
