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

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.
Ask for the Declaration of Conformity and commissioning paperwork at handover, and store it with your other house documents.
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 Surbiton

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 Surbiton: questions

How much do electric roller garage doors cost in Surbiton?

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 Surbiton as elsewhere we cover.

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

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.

What do you check at a survey in KT6?

At a survey in KT6 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 Surbiton?

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 Surbiton. 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.

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.
