What should I know about remote control and keypad upgrades in Peterborough?

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.
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.

How does it work in Peterborough?

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.

Rules that apply in Peterborough

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 Peterborough: questions

What should I do while I wait for a visit in Peterborough?

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 Peterborough visit date is confirmed in writing.

How much is a visit in Peterborough?

Prices for remote control and keypad upgrades start from £108 inc VAT, and the price is agreed before anyone comes out. Any parts not covered by that price are quoted before they are fitted, so you can decide on the spot. The guide prices are the same in Peterborough as elsewhere we cover.

Can I get a price for Peterborough 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.

Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Peterborough?

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Peterborough and across PE1, PE2 and PE3, 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.

Does a smart receiver work with any electric roller door?

Not always. Some control boxes accept a smart receiver directly, while older or less common systems need a replacement receiver first. It also needs a dependable Wi-Fi signal at the garage. Tell us what control box you have and we'll confirm what's compatible, and the price, before the visit is booked.

Where is a wireless keypad fitted?

A wireless keypad is usually mounted on the wall outside, close to the garage door and at a comfortable height, so you can open the door without a handset. It communicates with the receiver without a cable to the control box. You choose the code, and you can change it later if you need to.
