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

Keep your remote fobs as well as the app, because they operate the door directly even when the internet is down.
Decide who in the household should have app access, and plan how you will remove access when someone no longer needs it.
Check the Wi-Fi signal on your phone at the top of the garage opening, since the receiver needs a reliable connection there.
Think about whether a Wi-Fi extender or mesh point may be needed if the garage is detached or behind thick walls.

Rules that apply in Hackney

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 Hackney: questions

How much do smart roller garage doors cost in Hackney?

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 Hackney as elsewhere we cover.

What do you check at a survey in E8?

At a survey in E8 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.

Is the survey in Hackney 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.

Can you remove my old garage door in Hackney?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Hackney 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.

Does a smart garage door work with voice assistants?

Some smart receivers can link to voice assistants or home automation systems, but it varies from one receiver to another. If that matters to you, tell us at the survey and we'll confirm what the receiver for your door supports before you order. Think carefully before allowing voice commands to open the door, for security.

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.
