What should I know about remote control and keypad upgrades in Boston?
- Rolling-code handsets are matched to your door's receiver, paired during the visit and tested before we leave.
- 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.
- A wireless keypad mounted beside the door lets you open the garage with a private code instead of a handset.

Rules that apply in Boston
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 Boston: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Boston?
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 Boston. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you charge more for Boston than other towns in Lincolnshire?
No. Guide prices are the same for Boston as for anywhere else we cover in Lincolnshire. 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.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Boston?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Boston and across PE21, 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.
How much is a visit in Boston?
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 Boston as elsewhere we cover.
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.
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.
