Town: Barnstaple
Postcode district: EX31
Area: Devon
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Right door type. Like-for-like or an upgrade to suit how the opening is used now.
Opening repairs. Any damage to the opening is put right so the new door fixes securely.
Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
Safe strip-out. Springs unwound and the old door dismantled safely.
Minimal downtime. Made-to-measure door ordered first so the swap takes a day.

What this work can involve

Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Replacing a corroded single-skin roller shutter on a trade unit with an insulated roller door and electric operation.
Changing a manual sliding door for a new electric sectional door running on low-headroom tracks.

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

In England, 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.

Access, phasing and timing

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.
