How we look after doors in Hartlepool

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.
Brake and override. Brakes tested and manual override checked on every change.
Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.
Matched drives. Each replacement drive is selected for the door it will move, not just the old part number.

What this work can involve

Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
Fitting an equivalent chain-drive motor with adapter plates to a large sectional door whose original drive is discontinued.
Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.

Powered door rules that apply in Hartlepool

Hartlepool 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.
