- Nation
- England

- Guide price
- £85 – £175
What's included
- Scheduled visits. Annual, six-monthly or quarterly service per door, matched to use.
- Written reports. Clear reports for every door, showing what is urgent and what can be planned.
- Full checklist. Springs, cables, rollers, guides, drives and controls inspected and adjusted.
- Safety testing. Safety devices are proven to work and closing forces measured where required.
- Flexible timing. Services can be scheduled around your operations, including outside working hours.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Identifying a worn spring on a busy sectional door during a service and replacing it before it breaks.
- Combining door servicing with fire shutter drop tests so a site needs only one planned visit.
- Servicing every loading door at a distribution site at weekends so goods-in runs normally during the week.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Hertfordshire 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
Service and repair visits in Hertfordshire are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Frequently asked questions
Do you service doors from other installers in Hertfordshire?
Yes. We service most makes of industrial door and loading bay equipment, whoever fitted them. On the first visit we record each door's details and condition so future servicing and parts orders are straightforward.
How often should our doors in Hertfordshire be serviced?
At least once a year is industry practice, with six-monthly or quarterly visits for busy doors, harsh environments or where the manufacturer says so. We agree the interval for each door when setting up the contract.
Can servicing at our Hertfordshire 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.
