Covering Egham and nearby
Addresses anywhere in the TW20 postcode district can book home automatic door openers through us. The engineer who attends works under our management and travels to the site. There is no branch in Egham, so the price, the booking and the paperwork all come from one place.
Doors at quieter sites in Egham and elsewhere in Surrey can go many years between checks. A safety inspection looks at how the sensors, closing behaviour and emergency functions are working, and gives you a written record to keep on file.

What to think about for home automatic door openers in Egham
- If the door faces the weather, as many exposed front doors in Egham do, the opener has to cope with wind. The survey looks at how sheltered the door is and sets the opener to suit.
- Bungalows and ground-floor flats in Egham often have a back or patio door onto the garden. Automating that door as well can make a big difference to everyday independence.
- Terraced houses and flats in Egham often have narrow hallways. The survey checks where the door swings, so it does not catch a wheelchair, a radiator or someone standing behind it.
- Think about who else uses the door. Carers, family and delivery drivers may need a fob, a key or an intercom, and the controls should be set up with all of them in mind.
- Power is usually taken from a nearby socket or a fused spur. If there is no socket near the door, an electrician may need to add one, which we can include in the quote.
Home automatic door openers in Egham: guide prices
The site survey is free, including the measured drawing and a fixed, itemised written quote. Guide price: typically £1,495 to £2,995 inc VAT.
| Item | Guide price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Door opener for one door, with wall button and remote fob | £1,495 – £2,995 | fitted, inc VAT |
| Opener plus electric lock or hands-free proximity tag | £2,495 – £3,995 | fitted, inc VAT |
| Openers on two doors, for example front door and one internal door | £2,795 – £5,495 | fitted, inc VAT |
| Battery backup for power cuts | £295 – £595 | fitted, inc VAT |
Prices include VAT at 20%. If you are eligible for VAT relief as a disabled person, the installation work may be zero-rated under HMRC rules; we will tell you on the quote if we think it applies and ask you to sign an eligibility declaration. Your council (or, in Northern Ireland, the Housing Executive) can sometimes help with the cost through a grant, but it must be approved before work starts.
Grants, VAT relief and safety in England
Some work and equipment for disabled people can qualify for VAT relief where HM Revenue and Customs’ conditions are met; we will tell you on the quote if we think it may apply.
A door opener at home should still let the door be opened by hand and lock securely. We set the opening speed and force for the people living there and show everyone how it works.
How it works
- Start with a short enquiry. Use the form, phone or email. Tell us whether the work is a new door, an upgrade or an opener for a home, and we arrange the next step for your site in Egham.
- Measured survey. The free survey confirms what will fit and what the entrance needs: opening width, door type, activation, safety sensors and behaviour on power loss or fire alarm, matched to how the building is used.
- Written price, no surprises. A fixed, itemised quote sets out the specification, the work involved, the expected lead time and the warranty terms. You can ask questions or change the specification before accepting it.
- Installed and commissioned. The door is installed with as little disruption as possible, then set up and tested for its hazard zones. Before leaving, the engineer explains the controls and hands over the documents for your records.

Home automatic door openers in Egham: questions
Do you fit automatic door openers to homes in Egham?
Yes. We arrange free home surveys and installations in Egham through specialist automatic door engineers working under our management. We look at the door and how it will be used, then send a fixed written quote with prices including VAT. Nothing goes ahead until you accept it.
What do you charge for home automatic door openers in Egham?
Our guide is £1,495 to £2,995 including VAT (per door), the same guide prices we use across the UK. The free site survey in Egham confirms the price as a fixed, itemised written quote, and the guide price tool gives you a range before anyone visits.
Can you work with our occupational therapist in Egham?
Yes. If an occupational therapist has assessed the home, we can work from their report and talk to them about the doors and controls they recommend. If a grant is involved, we can provide the quote and product details the council or housing authority asks for.
Can I get a grant for a door opener in Egham?
Possibly. Councils and housing authorities in England can sometimes help pay for adaptations such as door openers, and they decide who qualifies. Help is means-tested, usually follows an occupational therapist's assessment and must be approved before work starts, so contact your council early and before ordering anything.
How are payments structured for work in Egham?
Payment stages are set out in the quote before you accept it. Larger or made-to-order jobs may involve a deposit and a balance on completion, while smaller jobs may be invoiced once the work is finished. Nothing is charged for the survey itself, and the terms you accept are the terms that apply.
What does the written quote for home automatic door openers in Egham include?
The quote lists each item separately: the door or equipment, installation, electrical connections where we provide them, removal of anything being replaced, testing and handover. It is a fixed price for the work described, so it does not change unless the scope changes, and any change is agreed with you in writing first.
Can a home in Egham get help paying for a door opener?
Possibly. In England a Disabled Facilities Grant of up to £30,000 can fund adaptations that make it easier to get in and out of a home. It is means-tested and must be approved by the council before work starts, so ask your council and occupational therapist.
