What should I know about smart roller garage doors in Christchurch?

Check the Wi-Fi signal on your phone at the top of the garage opening, since the receiver needs a reliable connection there.
Only close the door from the app when you know the opening is clear, and keep testing the safety devices monthly.
Think about whether a Wi-Fi extender or mesh point may be needed if the garage is detached or behind thick walls.
Keep your remote fobs as well as the app, because they operate the door directly even when the internet is down.

Rules that apply in Christchurch

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.

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.

Smart roller garage doors in Christchurch: questions

How much do smart roller garage doors cost in Christchurch?

Our guide price for smart roller garage doors is from £1,290 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 Christchurch as elsewhere we cover.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Christchurch?

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 Christchurch. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Can I get a price for Christchurch 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.

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Christchurch?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

Can I add smart control to my existing roller garage door?

If your door is already electric, a smart receiver can often be added on a visit, with the price agreed before we come out. The motor and control box need to be compatible, which we check first. If your door is manual, it would need converting to electric before smart control could be added, and that depends on its condition.

What happens to a smart garage door if the Wi-Fi goes down?

The app may stop responding until the Wi-Fi or internet connection comes back, but the door itself keeps working. Your remote fobs talk to the door directly, and any keypad or key switch works as normal. The door doesn't rely on the internet to open and close, only to take instructions from the app.
