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

Consider whether children, pets or bikes are often near the opening, and plan to test the safety edge or photocells every month.
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.
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.

Rules that apply in Kirkby

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 Kirkby: questions

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

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 Kirkby. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Is the survey in Kirkby really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

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

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.

Do you charge more for Kirkby than other towns in Merseyside?

No. Guide prices are the same for Kirkby as for anywhere else we cover in Merseyside. 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.

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 I add more remotes or a keypad later?

Yes. When you order a new door, you can add extra handsets and a wireless keypad at the prices in your quote. On an existing door, adding or recoding remotes, or changing the receiver, is done on a visit whose price is agreed before we come out. Keep a note of how many handsets you have, so any lost ones can be dealt with.
