Handsets and keypads are priced individually, so your confirmation shows the visit and each item you have chosen.
Older receivers that no longer accept current handsets can be replaced, with the fitted price confirmed before booking.

Rules that apply in Barnstaple

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 Barnstaple: questions

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Barnstaple?

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 Barnstaple. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

How much is a visit in Barnstaple?

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 Barnstaple as elsewhere we cover.

Will you fix the door on the first visit?

A fault can sometimes be found and put right on the first visit, but we never promise it. If a part needs ordering, we quote for it first, make the door safe where we can, and confirm the return date in writing.

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

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Barnstaple and across EX31 and EX32, 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.

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.

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.
