What this work can involve

Setting up six-monthly servicing for a run of loading bay doors and dock levellers at a distribution centre.
Servicing high-speed doors quarterly at a food plant, with intervals set from each door's cycle counter.
Combining door servicing with fire shutter drop tests so a site needs only one planned visit.

Safety law for industrial doors in England

Industrial doors in Thetford 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.
