Highly Recommended
We have 2 smaller and 1 large Silvelox garage doors and had major problems over the years with doors not working properly e.g. not closing, bouncing back, not opening and the latest was that the pull mechanism failed. We had another company dealing with it in the past and although the doors were open and closing afterwards, dangerous shortcuts were made. The opening mechanism of the passenger door incorporated in one of the doors was made inactive and therefore we were unable to open this door from the outside. The safety features were disabled so that the garage doors still would close or open even if car or (worse) a person was standing in it's way. Highly dangerous. It was extremely difficult to get an engineer out despite multiple phone calls. Fortunately we found BDS - Blacklock Doors. They were a pleasure to work with, very reliable (arrival exactly on time on agreed appointment and very very skilled). The company was located quite a distance away, but this was no problem. We are very happy with the work of David and Amanda and very pleased that our doors are functioning again, as they should do. Highly recommended. Many thanks for you professional help.

David Blacklock is your man !
If you need someone who knows Silvelox in the UK then David Blacklock is your man. It’s rare to find someone of his experience with fluency in the multiple skills and talents needed to know what makes these doors work and how to install, maintain and repair them properly. The Silvelox brand essentially represents the best garage doors that money can buy and I’d highly recommend his company BDS for anyone in need of Silvelox support. With David and Amanda’s help I’m confident that the doors we own can now stay that way for many years to come.

Many thanks for being there!
We had a beautiful Silvelox garage door fitted 3 years ago by a local firm. It never functioned properly, either it didn’t completely close or it refused to open or stopped halfway. We gave up trying to get the installers to correct the problem so after it ground to a halt one day recently with a shuddering noise we were delighted to find that there was a Silvelox expert in this country. We called Amanda and David and never looked back. We felt immediately in the hands of professionals and from our initial contact to the very speedy resolution of our previously badly fitted garage door we were delighted with the result. We couldn’t recommend BDS Ltd enough. Silvelox garage doors are a clever and beautiful product but they have to be fitted by someone with the relevant experience. Enter BDS. Many thanks for being there!

Finally – a fully functioning garage door !
Our garage door has been malfunctioning for four years and we were considering having to purchase a new one as we could not find an enterprise willing to take on the repair. My new builder offered to do some research and came up with the highly recommended BDS. David and Amanda run a tight and efficient ship and assured us that they would do all they could to save us from buying a new door. David was able to diagnose and rectify the multiple issues and thanks to him and Amanda we finally have a fully functioning garage door.

Fantastic Service
I had a Silvelox garage door installed in 2010, which worked perfectly until it didn’t. The original installer was no more and after several local garage door installers could not help me, I found BDS. They were amazing from start to finish. Amanda took my call. She is very knowledgeable and got all the information needed for David to fix my problem. David followed the call up to ensure he had all the correct parts. The problem was diagnosed before he even turned up and all was fixed in one efficient visit. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for your fantastic service.

The Silvelox Fox
We had our Silvelox front door installed in 2012, the company we used is no longer around and over the last few years the lock mechanism had got stiffer and stiffer to the point we were worried that we might snap the key in the lock. I tried contacting some local companies but no one had the knowledge or expertise in Silvelox front doors. Luckily one of them mentioned David and BDS as the go to person for Silvelox in the UK. Thank goodness. David came out to service the door and he was able to ease the lock mechanism and it's as good as new, if not better! On top of that he's a thoroughly nice guy. First class service all round, thank you David and Amanda.

A Super-Reliable Team Providing Great Service
We contacted BDS to diagnose and repair a Silvelox garage door we had installed 20 years ago. The product is unrivalled in quality and design and only now have we experienced a failure with the automatic opening mechanism. Our local service provider closed 7 years ago, and we were dreading the prospect of trying to find someone knowledgeable that we could trust. Amanda and David have been extremely helpful from the start, and over several pre-visit telephone calls they guided me through some remote diagnostics to narrow the fault to either the remote transmitter or receiver. During our service visit, David identified the door sensors controlling the signal to close on command also needed some adjustment and this was promptly repaired. We are genuinely relieved to have found an owner-led Company who cares about their service level and our customer experience. Having them on-hand to cover any service requirement gives me great comfort. Thank you both.

Silvelox Problem Solver !
We ordered a Silvelox Securlap garage door for our new build home - we needed a space saving door that had a very high level of thermal insulation. The door was initially installed incorrectly and Silvelox recommended that we approach their ‘go-to’ person in the UK, David Blacklock. David attended site, analysed the issues and determined what had been done incorrectly and rectified the installation in a pleasant, timely and polite manner. He did not do the original installation. If we do another installation, we will insist that David does it! Always good in these times to get polite, efficient service and the problem solved, not fudged.

THE Silvelox Experts
From the very first contact Amanda and David did everything they could to assist us. As we are 250 miles from BDS, David first called and spent considerable time talking me through how to check for various common issues and to try to identify a cause for the door failure. The sensors, at least, were a likely issue and so a service call was needed. The charges and likely spares costs were laid out clearly beforehand, and BDS didn't deviate from the estimates. Also given the distance, I was concerned if a second visit would be needed, but David carries spares for just about any issue. On inspection, David quickly identified multiple issues, all of which he was able to put right. Throughout the visit, David was explaining what he was doing and giving me tips and showing me how to carry out on-going care maintenance. Amanda and David are obviously passionate about their product, and it was a pleasure getting such service excellence. Thank you to you both.
