What we fit in Llandudno
- Warning devices. Lights and sounders make sure people know when a door is about to move.
- Safety edges. Pressure-sensitive or optical edges that stop and reverse the door on contact.
- Light curtains. Many beams from floor to head detect people and vehicles anywhere in the opening.
- Photocells. If something breaks the beam, the door will not close.

Safety law for industrial doors in Wales
Industrial doors in Llandudno 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Electrical work is the part that most often delays a job. If a new or converted door needs a supply, we confirm the motor's requirement at quote stage so your electrician can provide an isolator in the right place before installation day.
