What our engineers check and fix

Safety testing. Safety devices are proven to work and closing forces measured where required.
Written reports. Clear reports for every door, showing what is urgent and what can be planned.
Most makes. Whoever installed them, we service most makes of door and loading equipment.
Loading bays. Loading bay equipment is covered alongside the doors, saving separate visits.
Flexible timing. Visits out of hours or at weekends where needed.

Typical scopes of work

Combining door servicing with fire shutter drop tests so a site needs only one planned visit.
Servicing every loading door at a distribution site at weekends so goods-in runs normally during the week.
Producing door condition and defect reports for a landlord's agent ahead of a tenant handover.

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

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.

How the work is organised

Service and repair visits in Gateshead are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.
