What our engineers check and fix
- Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
- Re-commissioning. The door is fully re-commissioned and tested before it goes back into use.
- Written records. A record of the work and tests for your maintenance file.
- Matched drives. Motor torque, speed and mounting matched to the door's weight and size.
- Brake and override. The new drive holds the door securely and can still be opened by hand in a power cut.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing a burnt-out direct-drive motor on a loading bay door and fitting an inverter control panel at the same time.
- Fitting an equivalent chain-drive motor with adapter plates to a large sectional door whose original drive is discontinued.
- Fitting a centre-mounted motor where an end-mounted replacement would clash with racking beside the door.
Safety law for industrial doors in Wales
Industrial doors in Gorseinon 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.

How soon can a door motor in Gorseinon be replaced?
Many common motors can be sourced quickly, and fitting usually takes a few hours once the drive is on site. Specialist or obsolete motors may need ordering; we tell you the lead time with the quote.
