What our engineers check and fix

Panel upgrades. New control panels with monitored safety inputs and inverter options.
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.
Brake and override. Brakes tested and manual override checked on every change.
Fault diagnosis. Diagnosis comes first, so you only pay for the parts the door actually needs.

Jobs we can carry out

Fitting a centre-mounted motor where an end-mounted replacement would clash with racking beside the door.
Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Upgrading an old relay control panel to a modern unit with monitored safety edge inputs during a motor change.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Walsall 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

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.
