In short
Old springs, corroded guides and obsolete motors make some doors in Gwent hard to keep running. A planned replacement avoids the next breakdown and leaves you with a door that suits how you work now.

What to specify
- Free survey. We inspect the old door and measure the opening at no cost before quoting.
- Disposal. We take the old door away so there is nothing left on site to deal with.
- Opening repairs. Any damage to the opening is put right so the new door fixes securely.
- 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.
Typical scopes of work
- Removing a rotted timber frame and fitting new steel jambs before installing a replacement roller shutter.
- Stripping out a sectional door with broken springs and an obsolete motor, and fitting a new door with an inverter drive.
- Replacing a busy internal shutter with a high-speed fabric door so the opening is no longer left standing open.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Gwent?
In Wales, 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
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
