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

Check where the override handle would be kept, because you'll need it to open the door by hand during a power cut.
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.
Make sure there's a clear spot on the wall inside the garage for the control box, away from shelving or anything stacked in the way.
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 Ewell

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 Ewell: questions

What do you check at a survey in KT17?

At a survey in KT17 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.

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Ewell?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Ewell garage so you can compare.

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

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.

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

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 Ewell. 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.

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.
