What should I know about remote control and keypad upgrades in Sutton?
- Rolling-code handsets are matched to your door's receiver, paired during the visit and tested before we leave.
- Smart receivers let you open and close the door from a phone app where the garage has dependable Wi-Fi.
- A wireless keypad mounted beside the door lets you open the garage with a private code instead of a handset.
- 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 Sutton?
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 Sutton
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 Sutton: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Sutton?
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 Sutton visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you charge more for Sutton than other towns in Greater London?
No. Guide prices are the same for Sutton 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.
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 cover Sutton?
Yes. Sutton is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including SM1, SM2 and SM3. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
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.
