How we look after doors in County Durham
- Safety testing. Safety devices are proven to work and closing forces measured where required.
- Most makes. Doors and equipment from most manufacturers serviced.

Jobs we can carry out
- Setting up six-monthly servicing for a run of loading bay doors and dock levellers at a distribution centre.

Powered door rules that apply in County Durham
County Durham 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
On a first visit we record each door's make, size, control type and condition. That record makes later repairs quicker to price and helps you plan replacements before a door fails.

Your questions about planned maintenance contracts
Are repairs at our County Durham site included in the maintenance price?
No. The contract covers the scheduled visits. Parts and remedial work are quoted separately after each service, and repair call-outs between services are chargeable, so you stay in control of spending.
Can servicing at our County Durham premises be done out of hours?
Yes. Visits can be scheduled for early mornings, evenings or weekends where doors cannot be taken out of use during the day. Any extra cost for out-of-hours work is shown in the contract.
What records do we get after servicing in County Durham?
A written report for each door covering checks, safety and force test results, defects ranked by urgency and recommended actions, plus an asset register of every door on your site if you want one.
