Rules that apply in Ashford (Surrey)
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 Ashford (Surrey): questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Ashford (Surrey)?
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 Ashford (Surrey)?
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 Ashford (Surrey). Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Is the survey in Ashford (Surrey) really free?
Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Ashford (Surrey)?
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 Ashford (Surrey) garage so you can compare.
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.
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.
