How we look after doors in Harwich

Most makes. Doors and equipment from most manufacturers serviced.
Loading bays. Loading bay equipment is covered alongside the doors, saving separate visits.
Safety testing. Edges, photocells, light curtains and fall protection tested, with force tests.
Flexible timing. Visits out of hours or at weekends where needed.
Written reports. Clear reports for every door, showing what is urgent and what can be planned.

Examples of work we can quote for

Servicing every loading door at a distribution site at weekends so goods-in runs normally during the week.
Combining door servicing with fire shutter drop tests so a site needs only one planned visit.
Servicing high-speed doors quarterly at a food plant, with intervals set from each door's cycle counter.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Harwich are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.

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.
