What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in Thornton-Cleveleys?
- 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.
- Count the remote fobs your household needs and plan where they'll live, as a lost fob should be recoded out of the system.
- 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.

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 Thornton-Cleveleys: questions
Is the survey in Thornton-Cleveleys really free?
Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Thornton-Cleveleys?
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 Thornton-Cleveleys garage so you can compare.
Do you cover Thornton-Cleveleys?
Yes. Thornton-Cleveleys is part of the area we cover in Lancashire, including FY5, FY6 and FY2. 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 FY5?
At a survey in FY5 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.
