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

Recoding after moving house means only the handsets you hold can open the door, whatever the previous owners kept.
A wireless keypad mounted beside the door lets you open the garage with a private code instead of a handset.
Recoding clears the receiver's memory so a lost or stolen fob can no longer open your garage door.
Handsets and keypads are priced individually, so your confirmation shows the visit and each item you have chosen.

How does it work in Whitby?

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 Whitby

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 Whitby: questions

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

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Whitby and across YO21 and YO22, 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 Whitby?

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

Can I get a price for Whitby without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

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.

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.

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.
