What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in South Benfleet?
- Decide where the manual override will be kept inside the garage, so it's easy for you to find but not obvious to anyone else.
- Check with your insurer whether they ask for anything specific about garage doors before you choose a rating.
- Look at the lintel and the brickwork around the opening, as a rated door relies on sound masonry for its fixings.
- Ask to see the certificate for the exact door model in your quote, and check that the model name and rating match.

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.
Planning
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), sits in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, or is on an estate where planning conditions or covenants control garage doors.
Security-rated roller garage doors in South Benfleet: questions
Can you remove my old garage door in South Benfleet?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your South Benfleet address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in South Benfleet?
Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.
Do you charge more for South Benfleet than other towns in Essex?
No. Guide prices are the same for South Benfleet as for anywhere else we cover in Essex. 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.
What do you check at a survey in SS7?
At a survey in SS7 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.
Can my existing roller door be upgraded to a security rating?
No. A rating applies to a complete door model as the manufacturer had it tested, so adding locks or parts to an existing door doesn't make it rated. If you want a certificated door, it has to be a new door of a rated model. Some changes still help, such as recoding lost remotes on a visit that is priced and agreed before we come out.
Are security-rated roller doors also insulated?
Yes. The security-rated doors in our price list are insulated electric doors, so you get foam-filled laths that reduce heat loss, draughts and noise as well as tested resistance to forced entry. Insulated laths make a larger roll in the box, though, so the headroom above your opening is checked carefully at survey.
