How we look after doors in Dartford

Most makes. Whoever installed them, we service most makes of door and loading equipment.
Written reports. A report per door with ranked defects and recommended actions.
Flexible timing. Visits out of hours or at weekends where needed.
Loading bays. Loading bay equipment is covered alongside the doors, saving separate visits.
Scheduled visits. Each door is serviced as often as it needs, from yearly to quarterly.

What this work can involve

Servicing high-speed doors quarterly at a food plant, with intervals set from each door's cycle counter.
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.

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

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.

Keeping your site running during the work

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.
