Options that matter on site
- Weather seals. Brush or rubber guide seals and a rubber bottom seal against draughts and rain.
- Safety devices. Every powered door gets the safety functions its risk assessment calls for and is tested before handover.
- Wind locks. Lath end locks for exposed or wide doors to stop the curtain blowing out.
- Compact coil. No tracks under the roof: the door rolls up into a neat coil above the lintel.
- Colour choice. Choose a colour to suit your building, with a matching hood over the coil if wanted.
What this work can involve
- Converting a hand-chained insulated roller door to electric operation with a safety edge and photocells.
- Supplying insulated roller doors in one matching RAL colour across a terrace of refurbished small business units.
- Fitting a compact insulated service door to a plant room to reduce the noise reaching neighbouring offices.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Fishponds?
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.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around Fishponds vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
