How we look after doors in Stamford

Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Re-commissioning. The door is fully re-commissioned and tested before it goes back into use.

Examples of work we can quote for

Fitting a centre-mounted motor where an end-mounted replacement would clash with racking beside the door.
Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.

Powered door rules that apply in Stamford

Stamford 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.
