What's included

Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Matched drives. Each replacement drive is selected for the door it will move, not just the old part number.
Re-commissioning. The door is fully re-commissioned and tested before it goes back into use.
Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.

Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.

Powered door rules that apply in Bournemouth

Bournemouth 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.

Access, phasing and timing

Service and repair visits in Bournemouth are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.
