Town: Norwich
Postcode district: NR2
Area: Norfolk
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What's included

Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.
Matched drives. Each replacement drive is selected for the door it will move, not just the old part number.
Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.
Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.

What this work can involve

Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Norwich are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

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.
