What to specify
- Interlocks. Airlocks, door-to-leveller and fire alarm interfaces.
- Inverter drives. Frequency inverters move busy doors faster while cutting wear on every cycle.
- Matched motors. Direct, centre-mounted, chain-drive or tubular motors sized to the door.
- Activation options. Buttons, key switches, remotes, pull cords, loops, radar and access control.
- Traffic lights. Red and green lights and warning beacons for drivers.
Jobs we can carry out
- Fitting a centre-mounted motor to a roller shutter where a side wall leaves no room at the barrel end.
- Installing an airlock interlock between two high-speed doors so only one can be open at a time.
- Adding radar with cross-traffic suppression to a door on a busy aisle so passing trucks do not open it.
Powered door rules that apply in Aberystwyth
Aberystwyth 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.

Frequently asked questions
Do automated doors in Aberystwyth 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.
Can you add interlocks or traffic lights to doors around Dyfed?
Yes. We fit airlock interlocks, door-to-leveller interlocks, traffic lights and warning beacons to new and existing doors across Dyfed, subject to compatibility with the control panels already fitted, and replace panels where they cannot accept the extra inputs.
Which activation would suit our Aberystwyth 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.
