Rules that apply in Gateshead
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 Gateshead: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Gateshead?
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 Gateshead. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you charge more for Gateshead than other towns in Tyne and Wear?
No. Guide prices are the same for Gateshead as for anywhere else we cover in Tyne and Wear. 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.
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.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Gateshead?
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 Gateshead visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you repair roller doors you didn't fit?
Yes. We repair electric and manual roller garage doors of any make, whoever fitted them. Tell us what the door is doing and the make of the motor or control box if you know it. That helps us confirm the visit price and, where the likely parts are clear from your description, plan for them before the visit.
Can I keep using my roller door while it's faulty?
If the door is reversing unexpectedly, running unevenly, making grinding noises or has come out of its guides, stop using it until it has been checked. A door with a faulty safety device may not stop when it should. Switch an electric door off at the isolator, keep people, pets and cars clear of a part-open door, and don't force the curtain.
