What to specify
- Disposal. Old doors taken away for recycling or disposal.
- Safe strip-out. Springs unwound and the old door dismantled safely.
- Ongoing servicing. We can service the new door from the start so its history begins on day one.
- Commissioning. Each new door is tested and handed over with the documents it needs.
- Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Swapping a standard shutter for a security-rated door installed exactly to the manufacturer's certified specification.
- Changing a manual sliding door for a new electric sectional door running on low-headroom tracks.
- Phasing the replacement of several loading doors so only one bay is out of use at a time.
Powered door rules that apply in Exeter
Exeter 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.
How the work is organised
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Frequently asked questions
Do you replace doors at multiple sites across Devon?
Yes. We replace doors across Devon, including planned programmes covering several sites or a whole run of units, phased so that each site keeps operating normally while its doors are being changed.
Should we repair or replace our door in Exeter?
If the door has several faults, recurring problems or parts that are no longer made, replacement is often better value. We price repair and replacement side by side so you can decide on cost and remaining life.
Is the survey free for door replacement in Exeter?
Yes. Surveys for replacements are free. We assess the old door and opening, measure for the new door, and quote a fixed price that lists the door, strip-out, disposal and any opening works separately.
