What our engineers check and fix

Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Brake and override. Brakes tested and manual override checked on every change.
Re-commissioning. The door is fully re-commissioned and tested before it goes back into use.
Obsolete motors. When a motor is discontinued, we fit a suitable alternative and adapt the mounting.
Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.
Changing a tubular motor in a small service shutter that overheats and trips during busy periods.
Diagnosing a stalling roller shutter to confirm whether the motor, a broken spring or the control panel is at fault.

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

In Scotland, 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

Service and repair visits in Hawick 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.
