Options that matter on site
- Manual-to-electric. Hand-operated doors converted to power, with the paperwork a powered door needs.
- Matched motors. The motor type and size are chosen for the door's weight, space and cycle count.
- Interlocks. Doors linked to each other, to levellers or to the alarm so they work in the right sequence.
- Inverter drives. Frequency inverters move busy doors faster while cutting wear on every cycle.
- Traffic lights. Signals show drivers when the door is fully open and warn when it moves.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Installing an airlock interlock between two high-speed doors so only one can be open at a time.
- Adding traffic lights and warning beacons to a yard door shared by lorries and pedestrians.
- Fitting a centre-mounted motor to a roller shutter where a side wall leaves no room at the barrel end.
Powered door rules that apply in Dyfed
Dyfed is in Wales, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Access, phasing and timing
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.

Questions from businesses in Dyfed
How much does it cost to make a door electric in Dyfed?
Our guide price for a manual-to-electric conversion is £1,195 to £3,195 ex VAT, including motor, control panel, basic controls and commissioning. Extra controls and safety devices are priced separately, and your fixed price in Dyfed follows a free survey.
Can our door in Dyfed 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.
Which activation would suit our Dyfed 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.
