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

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Newport (Isle of Wight)?

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.

Questions from businesses in Newport (Isle of Wight)

Can you replace an obsolete door motor in Newport (Isle of Wight)?

Yes. Where the original is no longer made, we fit an equivalent drive with any adapter plates or couplings needed, then set limits and test the safety devices before the door goes back into use.

Do you replace motors on any make of door across the Isle of Wight?

We replace motors on most makes of roller shutter, sectional, sliding and high-speed door across the Isle of Wight, whoever installed them, subject to a suitable drive being available for the door's weight and mounting.

Should we replace the whole door instead of the motor in Newport (Isle of Wight)?

If the door itself is old, damaged or needs several other repairs, replacement can be better value. We price both where it makes sense, so you can weigh up the cost and remaining life honestly.
