How we look after doors in Ketton

Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.
Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.

Typical scopes of work

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

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Ketton 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.

How the work is organised

Service and repair visits in Ketton are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Frequently asked questions

Not always. Broken springs, damaged guides, failed panels, safety device faults and supply problems can all look like a failed motor. We diagnose first so you do not pay for a motor that will not fix the fault.

Yes. Where the original is no longer made, we fit an equivalent drive with any adapter plates or couplings needed, then set limits and test the safety devices before the door goes back into use.

Do you replace motors on any make of door across Rutland?

We replace motors on most makes of roller shutter, sectional, sliding and high-speed door across Rutland, whoever installed them, subject to a suitable drive being available for the door's weight and mounting.
