What should I know about remote control and keypad upgrades in Ashford (Kent)?

A smart receiver is only fitted where the door has both a safety edge and photocells, re-tested at fitting.
Older receivers that no longer accept current handsets can be replaced, with the fitted price confirmed before booking.
Rolling-code handsets are matched to your door's receiver, paired during the visit and tested before we leave.
Handsets and keypads are priced individually, so your confirmation shows the visit and each item you have chosen.

How does it work in Ashford (Kent)?

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 Ashford (Kent)

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 Ashford (Kent): 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.

Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Ashford (Kent)?

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Ashford (Kent) and across TN24, TN23 and TN25, 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 Ashford (Kent)?

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 Ashford (Kent). Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

How much is a visit in Ashford (Kent)?

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 Ashford (Kent) as elsewhere we cover.

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.

Does a smart receiver work with any electric roller door?

Not always. Some control boxes accept a smart receiver directly, while older or less common systems need a replacement receiver first. It also needs a dependable Wi-Fi signal at the garage. Tell us what control box you have and we'll confirm what's compatible, and the price, before the visit is booked.
