Rules that apply in Hayes
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.
Manual to electric roller door conversion in Hayes: questions
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Hayes?
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 Hayes garage so you can compare.
What do you check at a survey in UB3?
At a survey in UB3 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.
Do you charge more for Hayes than other towns in Greater London?
No. Guide prices are the same for Hayes as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. 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.
Do you cover Hayes?
Yes. Hayes is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including UB3, UB4 and UB11. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
What safety devices are added to a converted door?
A converted door gets a pressure-sensitive safety edge on the bottom rail and, where the risk assessment calls for them, photocells across the opening. These stop or reverse the door if it touches or detects an obstruction. After fitting, the closing force is tested to BS EN 12453, and you receive a Declaration of Conformity along with the rest of the handover paperwork.
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.
