What our engineers check and fix

Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.
Fault diagnosis. We check whether the motor, panel, supply or door is at fault before replacing anything.

What this work can involve

Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.
Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.

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

In Wales, 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

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
