What to specify

Jobs we can carry out
- Converting hand-chained sectional doors to electric operation with push-button controls, safety edges and photocells.
- Replacing an obsolete control panel with a modern unit, then re-testing the safety devices and closing forces.
- Linking loading bay doors to dock leveller controls so levellers deploy only when the doors are fully open.
Powered door rules that apply in Bedworth
Bedworth is in England, 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.
Planning the work around your site
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

How long does a door automation job take in Bedworth?
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 Bedworth 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.
