What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in Rochester?
- 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.
- 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.
- Ask whether extras such as vision laths are covered by the door's certificate before adding them to your order.

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.

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 Rochester: questions
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Rochester?
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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Rochester?
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 Rochester. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you cover Rochester?
Yes. Rochester is part of the area we cover in Kent, including ME1, ME2 and ME4. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
How much do security-rated roller garage doors cost in Rochester?
Our guide price for security-rated roller garage doors is from £2,295 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Rochester as elsewhere we cover.
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.
