Rules that apply in Portslade
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.
Roller garage door repairs in Portslade: questions
How much is a visit in Portslade?
Prices for roller garage door repairs start from £119 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 Portslade as elsewhere we cover.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Portslade?
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 Portslade visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you cover Portslade?
Yes. Portslade is part of the area we cover in East Sussex, including BN41, BN42 and BN3. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Portslade?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Portslade and across BN41, BN42 and BN3, 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.
What does the repair visit price include?
The repair visit price covers diagnosing the fault and the first 30 minutes of work. If the door can be put right in that time without parts, that's all you pay. If parts or more time are needed, the engineer explains what's wrong and quotes before fitting anything, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Do you repair sectional or up-and-over garage doors?
No. We work on roller garage doors only, so we don't repair sectional or up-and-over doors. If you have an up-and-over door that's failing and you'd like to change it, we can replace it with a roller door; that work starts with a survey and a written quote rather than a repair visit.
