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

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

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.

Questions from businesses in Prescot

How often should our doors in Prescot 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 Prescot 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.

Are repairs at our Prescot 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.
