How we look after doors in Felixstowe
- Written reports. Clear reports for every door, showing what is urgent and what can be planned.
- Flexible timing. Visits out of hours or at weekends where needed.
- Asset register. A register of every door on site, kept up to date.
- Most makes. Whoever installed them, we service most makes of door and loading equipment.
- Scheduled visits. Each door is serviced as often as it needs, from yearly to quarterly.
Typical scopes of work

- Servicing roller shutters annually across a portfolio of yards, stores and workshops under one contract.
Powered door rules that apply in Felixstowe
Felixstowe is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
Planning the work around your site
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
