What should I know about remote control and keypad upgrades in Wokingham?
- Recoding after moving house means only the handsets you hold can open the door, whatever the previous owners kept.
- Handsets and keypads are priced individually, so your confirmation shows the visit and each item you have chosen.
- A smart receiver is only fitted where the door has both a safety edge and photocells, re-tested at fitting.
- Rolling-code handsets are matched to your door's receiver, paired during the visit and tested before we leave.

Rules that apply in Wokingham
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.
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.
Remote control and keypad upgrades in Wokingham: questions
Do you charge more for Wokingham than other towns in Berkshire?
No. Guide prices are the same for Wokingham as for anywhere else we cover in Berkshire. 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.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Wokingham?
If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Wokingham visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Wokingham?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Wokingham and across RG40, RG41 and RG45, 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 Wokingham 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.
Can you add a remote to a manual roller door?
Not on its own. A manual door has no motor or receiver for a remote to talk to, because springs in the barrel balance the curtain and you lift it by hand. To operate it by remote, the door first needs a manual-to-electric conversion, which is only possible when the curtain, barrel, box and guides are sound and compatible.
