Rules that apply in Portishead
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 Portishead: questions
Can I get a price for Portishead 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.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Portishead?
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 Portishead visit date is confirmed in writing.
How much is a visit in Portishead?
Prices for roller garage door servicing start from £89 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 Portishead as elsewhere we cover.
Do you charge more for Portishead than other towns in Somerset?
No. Guide prices are the same for Portishead as for anywhere else we cover in Somerset. 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.
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.
Should I oil my roller garage door?
Not unless the manufacturer's instructions say so. Many roller doors use a dry or silicone lubricant, if any at all, and the guide rails are usually best kept clean and dry. During a service, the engineer uses only the product type the manufacturer specifies for your door.
