How we look after doors in Peckham

Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
Matched drives. Each replacement drive is selected for the door it will move, not just the old part number.
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.
Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.

What this work can involve

Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Upgrading an old relay control panel to a modern unit with monitored safety edge inputs during a motor change.
Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.

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

In England, 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.

Access, phasing and timing

Service and repair visits in Peckham 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.
