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

Rolling-code handsets are matched to your door's receiver, paired during the visit and tested before we leave.
A smart receiver is only fitted where the door has both a safety edge and photocells, re-tested at fitting.
Recoding after moving house means only the handsets you hold can open the door, whatever the previous owners kept.
Recoding clears the receiver's memory so a lost or stolen fob can no longer open your garage door.

Covering Weymouth and nearby

We survey and fit roller garage doors across Weymouth, including DT4 and DT3, as part of our coverage in Dorset. Weymouth is about 7 miles from Dorchester.

Rules that apply in Weymouth

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 Weymouth: questions

Do you cover Weymouth?

Yes. Weymouth is part of the area we cover in Dorset, including DT4 and DT3. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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

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

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

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 Weymouth visit date is confirmed in writing.

Do you charge more for Weymouth than other towns in Dorset?

No. Guide prices are the same for Weymouth as for anywhere else we cover in Dorset. 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.

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.

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.
