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

Check the Wi-Fi signal on your phone at the top of the garage opening, since the receiver needs a reliable connection there.
Consider battery backup alongside smart control, so the door still works for a limited number of cycles in a power cut.
Decide who in the household should have app access, and plan how you will remove access when someone no longer needs it.
Ask which features the smart receiver offers, such as showing whether the door is open, before you order it.

Smart roller garage doors in Kelso: questions

Is the survey in Kelso 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.

Do you charge more for Kelso than other towns in the Scottish Borders?

No. Guide prices are the same for Kelso as for anywhere else we cover in the Scottish Borders. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

Can you remove my old garage door in Kelso?

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

What do you check at a survey in TD5?

At a survey in TD5 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.

Do I still get remote fobs with a smart door?

Yes. A smart door comes with rolling-code remote fobs as well as app control, so you have a way to operate it without your phone. Extra handsets can be added to your order, and a wireless keypad is useful for anyone without a fob or a phone to hand. Keep the manual override handle somewhere easy to find, too.

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.
