Questions about manual to electric roller door conversion in Ayrshire
How do I book a survey in Ayrshire?
Start with the guide price tool or the form on this page. We then contact you to arrange a free survey for a new door, replacement or conversion, and confirm the date in writing.
Are guide prices the same across Ayrshire?
Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in Ayrshire. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.
Which towns do you cover in Ayrshire?
We cover Ayrshire, including Kilmarnock, Ayr, Irvine and Kilwinning. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in Ayrshire online.
How do I know if my manual roller door can be motorised?
The only reliable way is a survey. We check that the curtain runs smoothly, the laths are undamaged, and the barrel, box and guide rails are sound and compatible with a tubular motor. If they are, we quote for the conversion; if not, we explain why and price a new electric door so you can compare the two.
Will I still be able to open the door by hand?
Not in the way you do now, because the motor holds the curtain in place. Most electric roller doors have a manual override, usually an internal crank or winding handle, for use in a power cut. A battery backup unit can also be added so the door runs for a limited number of cycles when the power is off.
