What our engineers check and fix
- Safety devices. Edges, photocells, light curtains and fall protection repaired and tested.
- Most makes. We work on doors from many manufacturers, not just the ones we supply.

- Springs and cables. Broken springs and snapped cables replaced safely by trained engineers.
- Impact damage. Bent guides, damaged laths and dented panels repaired or replaced.
What this work can involve
- Freeing seized trolleys on a heavy sliding door so it can be moved by hand again.
- Replacing a broken torsion spring and both lift cables on a sectional door, then rebalancing and testing the door.
- Re-feeding a derailed roller shutter curtain into its guides and straightening a guide bent by vehicle impact.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Ilford?
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.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.
