What should I know about safety edge and photocell repairs in Beverley?

Wiping the photocell lenses and clearing the beam are safe checks to make before you request a visit.
A pressure-sensitive safety edge on the bottom rail stops or reverses the door when it touches something while closing.
After a repair, the door is tested to check it stops or reverses on obstruction before it's handed back.
The engineer tests the whole circuit, because a damaged cable or control box fault can look like a failed device.

How does it work in Beverley?

The engineer tests the circuit and replaces the faulty device, then tests the door. Any further parts are quoted before they're fitted.

Rules that apply in Beverley

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.

Safety edge and photocell repairs in Beverley: questions

Can I get a price for Beverley 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.

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

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Beverley and across HU17, 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 Beverley?

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

How much is a visit in Beverley?

Prices for safety edge and photocell repairs start from £99 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 Beverley as elsewhere we cover.

Why does my roller door reverse when nothing is in the way?

A door that reverses on its own while closing is often reacting to a safety device that thinks there's an obstruction. Dirty or misaligned photocells, a damaged safety edge, a loose cable or limits that have drifted can all cause it. Clean the photocell lenses and check the beam is clear, then request a visit if it continues.

Can photocells be added to a door that doesn't have them?

Often, if the control box has a connection for them. Some older systems need extra wiring or a replacement control box first. Tell us what's on the control box label and we'll confirm whether photocells can be added, and the price, before booking. Our battery backup and safety upgrades page covers adding devices.
