What should I know about remote control and keypad upgrades in Irvine?
- Recoding clears the receiver's memory so a lost or stolen fob can no longer open your garage door.
- A smart receiver is only fitted where the door has both a safety edge and photocells, re-tested at fitting.
- Older receivers that no longer accept current handsets can be replaced, with the fitted price confirmed before booking.
- Rolling-code handsets are matched to your door's receiver, paired during the visit and tested before we leave.
How does it work in Irvine?
On the day, the receiver is recoded and new handsets or keypads are paired and tested. Any other parts the door needs are quoted before they're fitted.

Remote control and keypad upgrades in Irvine: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Irvine?
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 Irvine. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you charge more for Irvine than other towns in Ayrshire?
No. Guide prices are the same for Irvine as for anywhere else we cover in Ayrshire. 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 repair roller doors you did not fit in Irvine?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Irvine and across KA12, KA11 and KA13, where parts are available. If a part is no longer made, we tell you what will fit instead, or price a replacement door if that is the better option.
Can I get a price for Irvine 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.
Can I buy a remote online and code it myself?
Sometimes, but only if the handset is compatible with your receiver, and many aren't. Rolling-code systems need the right handset type and the correct pairing steps from the motor maker. If you'd rather not risk buying the wrong one, tell us the make of your control box and we'll supply matched handsets and pair them during the visit.
Will recoding stop a lost fob from working?
Yes. Recoding clears the receiver's memory of paired handsets and then adds back only the ones you still have, plus any new ones. The lost or stolen fob is no longer recognised, so it can't open the door. It's sensible to do this after moving house as well, when you can't be sure how many handsets exist.
