What does a remote or smart opener upgrade involve in Whitehaven?

Can you code a replacement remote?

Most operators accept extra handsets of the same type and frequency. We identify your operator and code new handsets to it.

What if my handset is obsolete?

If the original handset is no longer made, a new receiver can be fitted so modern handsets work with your door, or the operator can be upgraded.

What does a remote or smart opener upgrade cost in Whitehaven?

Safety points for Whitehaven customers

Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.

A garage door fitted with an operator counts as a machine under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, whether it is at home or at work. Whoever puts the complete powered door into service must check it against BS EN 12453, including measuring closing forces with a calibrated meter, and issue a Declaration of Conformity and apply UKCA or CE marking (CE marking in Northern Ireland). That includes motorising an existing manual door, which is why a conversion is always set up and tested as a new powered door.
