The short version
Busy loading doors at your Darwen (BB3) site wear out faster than quiet ones. Planned servicing catches tired springs, frayed cables and failing safety edges before they stop the door mid-shift.

Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Darwen 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.
Planning the work around your site
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.
