What we fit in Chester

Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.
Disposal. Old doors taken away for recycling or disposal.
Opening repairs. Any damage to the opening is put right so the new door fixes securely.
Minimal downtime. The new door is ready before the old one comes out, keeping downtime short.

Typical scopes of work

Stripping out a sectional door with broken springs and an obsolete motor, and fitting a new door with an inverter drive.
Changing a manual sliding door for a new electric sectional door running on low-headroom tracks.
Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.

Powered door rules that apply in Chester

Chester is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Planning the work around your site

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
