What's included
- Safety devices. Safety functions are restored and checked so the door is safe to use again.
- Springs and cables. Stored-energy parts like springs are handled only by engineers with the right tools.
- Most makes. We work on doors from many manufacturers, not just the ones we supply.
- Impact damage. Vehicle damage put right so the door runs straight and seals properly again.
- Motors and controls. Motors, brakes, panels, limits and remotes diagnosed and repaired.
Jobs we can carry out
- Freeing seized trolleys on a heavy sliding door so it can be moved by hand again.
- Changing worn rollers and hinges on a noisy sectional door before they fail and pull the panels out of line.
- Diagnosing a door that reverses without obvious cause, such as a damaged safety edge or misaligned photocells, and fixing it.
Powered door rules that apply in Workington
Workington 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Industrial door repairs in Workington: your questions
Do you repair fire shutters across Cumbria?
Yes. We repair fire shutters across Cumbria, using parts and methods that keep to the manufacturer's specification so the shutter continues to perform as tested, and we drop-test it after the repair to prove it closes.
What should we do if a spring breaks on our Workington door?
Stop using the door, keep people clear of the area beneath it and do not try to open it with the motor. Call for a repair; springs store energy and should only be handled by a trained engineer.
