Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Wiltshire 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.
Planning the work around your site
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

Questions from businesses in Wiltshire
Should we replace the whole door instead of the motor in Wiltshire?
If the door itself is old, damaged or needs several other repairs, replacement can be better value. We price both where it makes sense, so you can weigh up the cost and remaining life honestly.
How soon can a door motor in Wiltshire 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.
Do you replace motors on any make of door across the South West?
We replace motors on most makes of roller shutter, sectional, sliding and high-speed door across the South West, whoever installed them, subject to a suitable drive being available for the door's weight and mounting.
