What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in Strood?
- Ask to see the certificate for the exact door model in your quote, and check that the model name and rating match.
- Ask whether extras such as vision laths are covered by the door's certificate before adding them to your order.
- Count the remote fobs your household needs and plan where they'll live, as a lost fob should be recoded out of the system.
- Look at the lintel and the brickwork around the opening, as a rated door relies on sound masonry for its fixings.

Security-rated roller garage doors in Strood: questions
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Strood?
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 Strood garage so you can compare.
Can you remove my old garage door in Strood?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Strood 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.
Do you cover Strood?
Yes. Strood is part of the area we cover in Kent, including ME2, ME1 and ME4. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
What do you check at a survey in ME2?
At a survey in ME2 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.
Will a security-rated garage door lower my home insurance?
We can't promise that. Some insurers ask about garage security, but each one sets its own terms and decides what, if anything, it takes into account. Before choosing a door for insurance reasons, ask your insurer what they would need to see, and keep the product certificate and commissioning paperwork somewhere safe in case they ask for it.
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.
