What should I know about roller garage door servicing in Thatcham?
- On manual doors, the engineer checks the spring balance and bottom-rail locks so the curtain lifts and locks properly.
- Lubricant is used only where the manufacturer allows it, and only the type the manufacturer specifies.
- On electric doors, the motor, limits, control box and remotes are checked and adjusted where needed.
- Guide rails are cleaned and checked for wear, bends and secure fixings so the curtain can run freely.

Rules that apply in Thatcham
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 servicing in Thatcham: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Thatcham?
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 Thatcham visit date is confirmed in writing.
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.
Can I get a price for Thatcham 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Thatcham?
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 Thatcham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you service roller doors you didn't fit?
Yes. We service electric and manual roller garage doors of any make, whoever fitted them. Tell us whether the door is electric or manual and the make if you know it, and we'll confirm the service price before anyone comes out. We don't service sectional or up-and-over doors.
Does a service affect my warranty?
The manufacturer's warranty terms for your door and motor set out what's required, and some ask for regular maintenance. Check the terms supplied with your door, or in your quote if we fitted it. Keeping a record of each service, including the date and what was done, is sensible whatever the terms say.
