What the visit covers in Perth and Kinross

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. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
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.
