What should I know about electric roller garage doors in South Glamorgan?

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.
Think about how everyone in the house will open the door, whether by remote fob, wall keypad, key switch or a phone app.
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.
Check where the override handle would be kept, because you'll need it to open the door by hand during a power cut.

Rules that apply in Wales

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in Wales 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.

Questions about electric roller garage doors in South Glamorgan

Are guide prices the same across South Glamorgan?

Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in South Glamorgan. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.

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

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Wales, 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.

Which towns do you cover in South Glamorgan?

We cover South Glamorgan, including Cardiff, Barry and Penarth. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in South Glamorgan online.

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.
