What we fit in Craigavon

Traffic lights. Signals show drivers when the door is fully open and warn when it moves.
Safety devices. Every automated door gets the detection its risk assessment needs, tested before use.
Manual override. Chain or crank override so doors open during power cuts.
Matched motors. The motor type and size are chosen for the door's weight, space and cycle count.
Activation options. Buttons, key switches, remotes, pull cords, loops, radar and access control.

Typical scopes of work

Installing an airlock interlock between two high-speed doors so only one can be open at a time.
Fitting a centre-mounted motor to a roller shutter where a side wall leaves no room at the barrel end.
Adding radar with cross-traffic suppression to a door on a busy aisle so passing trucks do not open it.

Frequently asked questions

Can our door in Craigavon 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 automated doors in Craigavon need more maintenance?

Powered doors need their motors, controls and safety devices checked as well as the mechanical parts, so at least an annual service is common practice, more often for busy doors. Servicing visits are chargeable; the survey for an automation job is free.

How long does a door automation job take in Craigavon?

A straightforward conversion is usually completed and commissioned in a day. Loops, interlocks and traffic lights add time, and we plan the work so the door is out of use for as little time as possible.
