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

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.

How the work is organised

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.

Questions from businesses in Stretford

Can we change door type when replacing at our Stretford unit?

Usually, yes, subject to headroom, side room and back room. Common upgrades are single-skin to insulated, manual to electric and conventional to high-speed. We check the space and the structure on survey before recommending a door type.

How long will our opening in Stretford be out of use?

The new door is made to measure before the old one is removed, so a single door is usually stripped out and replaced in a day, with the opening secured again by the end of the visit.

Do you replace doors at multiple sites across Greater Manchester?

Yes. We replace doors across Greater Manchester, 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.
