Options that matter on site

Free survey. We measure and inspect the opening first, so the price reflects your building rather than a guess.
Drives and controls. Direct, centre or chain drive motors with buttons, remotes, loops, radar or interlocks.
Fixed price. A written fixed price confirmed after the survey, before any work begins.
Aftercare. Planned maintenance and repairs available for the doors we fit and most other makes.
Safety set-up. Each motorised door gets the safety devices its risk assessment calls for and is force-tested before use.

Typical scopes of work

Fitting sectional doors, a high-speed internal door and steel personnel doors to a new-build warehouse as one coordinated package.
Replacing corroded roller shutters on a vehicle workshop with insulated roller doors and new key-switch controls.
Installing a fire shutter in a compartment wall where a conveyor line passes between production and dispatch areas.

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

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

Most installations in Skelmersdale can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
