What to specify

- Matched motors. Direct, centre-mounted, chain-drive or tubular motors sized to the door.

- Activation options. Choose how the door is opened, from staff buttons to automatic vehicle detection.
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.
- Replacing an obsolete control panel with a modern unit, then re-testing the safety devices and closing forces.
- 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 Dungannon?
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
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.

Door automation and controls in Dungannon: your questions
Can you add interlocks or traffic lights to doors around County Tyrone?
Yes. We fit airlock interlocks, door-to-leveller interlocks, traffic lights and warning beacons to new and existing doors across County Tyrone, subject to compatibility with the control panels already fitted, and replace panels where they cannot accept the extra inputs.
How long does a door automation job take in Dungannon?
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.
Can our door in Dungannon 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.
