What the visit covers in Kirkby-in-Ashfield

Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
Matched drives. Each replacement drive is selected for the door it will move, not just the old part number.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Obsolete motors. When a motor is discontinued, we fit a suitable alternative and adapt the mounting.

Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
