Town: Wishaw
Postcode district: ML2
Area: Lanarkshire
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What our engineers check and fix

Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Obsolete motors. When a motor is discontinued, we fit a suitable alternative and adapt the mounting.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.

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.
Fitting an equivalent chain-drive motor with adapter plates to a large sectional door whose original drive is discontinued.
Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.

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

In Scotland, 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

Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.
