Options that matter on site
- Inverter drives. Soft start and stop with faster opening for high-cycle doors.
- Manual-to-electric. Conversions for sectional, roller and sliding doors in good order.
- Interlocks. Doors linked to each other, to levellers or to the alarm so they work in the right sequence.
- Traffic lights. Red and green lights and warning beacons for drivers.
- Matched motors. Direct, centre-mounted, chain-drive or tubular motors sized to the door.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting induction loops and an inverter control panel so forklifts can open a busy internal door without stopping.
- Linking loading bay doors to dock leveller controls so levellers deploy only when the doors are fully open.
- Installing an airlock interlock between two high-speed doors so only one can be open at a time.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in County Armagh?
In Northern Ireland, the business in control of the premises must keep doors and gates safe under the Workplace Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 and maintain work equipment under PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999, with HSENI as the regulator. The installer who supplies or motorises a door hands over the conformity documents and user instructions; CE marking remains the relevant mark for machinery here.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around County Armagh vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Door automation and controls in County Armagh: your questions
Can our door in County Armagh be automated?
If the door is in good mechanical order and a suitable motor is available, usually yes. We check balance, springs, cables, guides and the curtain or panels on survey, and recommend repair or replacement first if needed.
Do you take responsibility for the conformity paperwork in County Armagh?
Yes. When we convert a door to power, we carry out the risk assessment, test the door and issue the Declaration of Conformity and user instructions, as the person who has made it a machine.
Which activation would suit our County Armagh site?
It depends on who uses the door. Buttons suit staff, remotes suit drivers, pull cords and loops suit forklifts, and radar suits mixed traffic. We look at your traffic on survey and recommend a set-up.
