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

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

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 Wimbledon: questions

Can you remove my old garage door in Wimbledon?

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

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

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.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Wimbledon?

Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.

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

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 Wimbledon. 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.
