What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in Chatham?
- Count the remote fobs your household needs and plan where they'll live, as a lost fob should be recoded out of the system.
- Consider battery backup if the garage is your main way in, so the door keeps working for a limited number of cycles in a power cut.
- Look at the lintel and the brickwork around the opening, as a rated door relies on sound masonry for its fixings.
- Check with your insurer whether they ask for anything specific about garage doors before you choose a rating.

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 Chatham: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Chatham?
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 Chatham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
What do you check at a survey in ME4?
At a survey in ME4 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 I get a price for Chatham 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.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Chatham?
That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Chatham garage so you can compare.
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.
Does a security-rated roller door have a manual override?
Like most electric roller doors, it normally has a manual override for power cuts, usually an internal crank or winding handle. Where the garage has no other way in, an external override may be possible, though it's worth thinking about where it sits. Battery backup is another option, running the door for a limited number of cycles while the power is off.
