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

A smart receiver is only fitted where the door has both a safety edge and photocells, re-tested at fitting.
Smart receivers let you open and close the door from a phone app where the garage has dependable Wi-Fi.
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.

Rules that apply in Cricklewood

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 Cricklewood: questions

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

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 Cricklewood visit date is confirmed in writing.

Do you cover Cricklewood?

Yes. Cricklewood is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including NW2, NW6 and NW11. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Can I get a price for Cricklewood 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 charge more for Cricklewood than other towns in Greater London?

No. Guide prices are the same for Cricklewood as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. 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.

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.
