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

Handsets and keypads are priced individually, so your confirmation shows the visit and each item you have chosen.
Recoding after moving house means only the handsets you hold can open the door, whatever the previous owners kept.
A smart receiver is only fitted where the door has both a safety edge and photocells, re-tested at fitting.
Recoding clears the receiver's memory so a lost or stolen fob can no longer open your garage door.

How does it work in Greenford?

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 Greenford

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 Greenford: questions

How much is a visit in Greenford?

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 Greenford as elsewhere we cover.

Do you cover Greenford?

Yes. Greenford is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including UB6, UB1 and UB5. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Greenford and across UB6, UB1 and UB5, 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 message you a photo of my garage in Greenford?

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

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 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.
