How we look after doors in Ammanford

Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.
Force testing. Closing forces measured to BS EN 12453 where the door closes under power.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Re-commissioning. The door is fully re-commissioned and tested before it goes back into use.
Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.

Jobs we can carry out

Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.
Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Ammanford?

In Wales, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Keeping your site running during the work

Service and repair visits in Ammanford 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.
