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

Recoding after moving house means only the handsets you hold can open the door, whatever the previous owners kept.
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.
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 Rochdale?

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 Rochdale

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 Rochdale: questions

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.

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

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

Do you charge more for Rochdale than other towns in Greater Manchester?

No. Guide prices are the same for Rochdale as for anywhere else we cover in Greater Manchester. 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.

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

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 Rochdale visit date is confirmed in writing.

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.

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.
