Rules that apply in Battersea

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.

Manual to electric roller door conversion in Battersea: questions

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

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

Can I get a price for Battersea without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

How much does manual to electric roller door conversion cost in Battersea?

Our guide price for manual to electric roller door conversion is from £495 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Battersea as elsewhere we cover.

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

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 Battersea garage so you can compare.

Do I need an electrician for a conversion?

An electric door needs a power supply near the box, usually a fused spur or a socket. If you already have one in a suitable place, it can normally be used. If not, a qualified electrician fits a new fused spur, priced separately in your quote. In England and Wales some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P.

Is converting better value than buying a new electric door?

Compare the conversion price with the new-door prices on our prices page. A conversion keeps your existing curtain, barrel, box and guides, so it only makes sense when those parts are in good condition. If the door is worn, or you'd like insulated laths, a new electric door may be better value overall, and your quote can show both.
