The short version
From a simple push-button station to airlock interlocks and traffic lights, we design and fit door controls in County Tyrone that make each door safer and quicker to use day to day.

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.
- Traffic lights. Red and green lights and warning beacons for drivers.
- Activation options. Buttons, key switches, remotes, pull cords, loops, radar and access control.
- Manual override. A manual means of opening is always kept, so the door is never stuck shut without power.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting induction loops and an inverter control panel so forklifts can open a busy internal door without stopping.
- 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.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in County Tyrone?
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.
Planning the work around your site
For busy sites in Northern Ireland the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Your questions about door automation and controls
How much does it cost to make a door electric in County Tyrone?
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 County Tyrone follows a free survey.
Which activation would suit our County Tyrone 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.
Do automated doors in County Tyrone 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.
