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

Photocells either side of the opening stop the door closing while anything is breaking the beam between them.
Photocells can often be added to doors that only have a safety edge, if the control box allows it.
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.

Safety edge and photocell repairs in Cleckheaton: questions

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.

Do you charge more for Cleckheaton than other towns in West Yorkshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Cleckheaton as for anywhere else we cover in West Yorkshire. 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.

How much is a visit in Cleckheaton?

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 Cleckheaton as elsewhere we cover.

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

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Cleckheaton and across BD19, BD11 and BD12, 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 bypass the photocells to get the door shut?

No. Bypassing, bridging or taping over a safety device removes the protection that stops the door closing onto a person, pet or car. If the door won't close, switch it off at the isolator, keep the area clear and request a visit. Tell us if you're concerned about security when you get in touch.

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.
