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

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.

How the work is organised

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.

Your questions about industrial door repairs

Will our door in Northampton 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 Northampton 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.

Can you repair our door in Northampton 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.
