What our engineers check and fix
- Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
- Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
- Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
- Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
- Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.
Jobs we can carry out
- Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
- Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.
- Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.
Powered door rules that apply in Chadderton
Chadderton 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.
How the work is organised
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.
