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

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.

Your questions about planned maintenance contracts

How often should our doors in Sittingbourne 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.

Do you service doors from other installers in Sittingbourne?

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.

Are repairs at our Sittingbourne 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.
