How we look after doors in Kent

Springs and cables. Stored-energy parts like springs are handled only by engineers with the right tools.
Clear pricing. You know the visit charge before we arrive and the repair price before we order.
Safety devices. Safety functions are restored and checked so the door is safe to use again.
Make safe. Doors secured or restricted when parts are needed.
Written reports. Findings, work done and recommendations recorded after each visit.

Jobs we can carry out

Changing worn rollers and hinges on a noisy sectional door before they fail and pull the panels out of line.
Replacing a broken torsion spring and both lift cables on a sectional door, then rebalancing and testing the door.
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 Kent

Kent 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.

Planning the work around your site

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.

Questions from businesses in Kent

Can you repair our door in Kent if you did not fit it?

Yes. We repair most makes of roller shutter, sectional, high-speed, sliding and fire door, whoever installed them. If original parts are no longer made, we look for compatible alternatives before suggesting anything bigger.

Should we repair or replace our old door in Kent?

Repair is usually the first step. If the door has several faults, keeps failing or parts are no longer made, we price replacement alongside the repair so you can compare cost and remaining life.

What should we do if a spring breaks on our Kent 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.
