What does a remote or smart opener upgrade involve in Hove?
What if my handset is obsolete?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.
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 does a remote or smart opener upgrade cost in Hove?
Guide price: £150–£300 inc VAT. We agree the visit price before we come; parts and any further work are priced before we do them.
This is a chargeable visit, priced up front. If parts are needed, you get the price before any further work is done.
What should you do until the engineer arrives in Hove?
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.
