Powered door rules that apply in Exeter
Exeter 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
Service and repair visits in Exeter are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Industrial door repairs in Exeter: your questions
Will our door in Exeter be fixed on the first visit?
Many faults are fixed on the first visit. Where springs, panels, motors or curtains need ordering, we make the door safe, quote a fixed price for the repair and return to fit the parts.
What should we do if a spring breaks on our Exeter 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.
Do you repair fire shutters across Devon?
Yes. We repair fire shutters across Devon, 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.
