What we fit in Maghull

Safety systems. Large doors move a lot of mass, so warning and detection devices are built in from the start.
Designed per opening. Each door engineered around the opening size, structure and site wind exposure.
Vertical-lift fabric. Tall openings with little side space can use a fabric door that lifts and folds into a compact stack.
Multi-leaf sliding. Leaves stacking to one or both sides, or into door pockets, with no headroom needed.
Wind resistance. Leaves, guides and fixings designed for the wind load on the closed door.

Typical scopes of work

Adding warning beacons, sounders and photocells to an older powered large-span door as part of a site risk assessment review.
Surveying and specifying a very wide sliding or folding door for a building that houses large plant and machinery.
Fitting a vertical-lift fabric door to a tall vehicle maintenance shed where adjoining buildings take up the side space.

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

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.

Planning the work around your site

Sites in and around Maghull vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
