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

A pressure-sensitive safety edge on the bottom rail stops or reverses the door when it touches something while closing.
Photocells can often be added to doors that only have a safety edge, if the control box allows it.
Photocells either side of the opening stop the door closing while anything is breaking the beam between them.
Wiping the photocell lenses and clearing the beam are safe checks to make before you request a visit.

Rules that apply in Wembley

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 Wembley: questions

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Wembley?

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

How much is a visit in Wembley?

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 Wembley as elsewhere we cover.

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

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Wembley and across HA0, HA9 and HA1, 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.

Do you cover Wembley?

Yes. Wembley is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including HA0, HA9 and HA1. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

How do I test my safety edge and photocells?

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your door. In general, the test checks that the door stops or reverses when the safety edge meets an obstruction while closing, and that the door won't close while the photocell beam is broken. Keep people and pets clear while testing, and repeat the test monthly.

Do you repair safety devices on any make of roller door?

Yes. We repair and replace safety edges and photocells on electric roller garage doors of any make, provided compatible parts are available for the control box. We don't work on sectional or up-and-over doors. If a compatible part isn't available, we'll explain the options before anything is booked.
