Quick answer
Busy doors in Beverley (HU17) that close automatically need reliable detection. A full-height light curtain stops the door before it touches anyone, with a safety edge on the bottom rail as back-up.

What we fit in Beverley
- Warning devices. Lights and sounders make sure people know when a door is about to move.
- Fall protection. If a spring, cable or drive fails, the door is caught before it falls.
- Photocells. Beams across the opening that stop the door closing while broken.
- Records. You receive a record of the devices fitted and the tests carried out.
- Safety edges. Pressure-sensitive or optical edges that stop and reverse the door on contact.
Jobs we can carry out
- Adding anti-fall devices to heavy roller shutters identified in a workplace risk assessment review.
- Upgrading an old relay control panel so monitored safety edges and photocells can be connected to it.
- Replacing a damaged or bypassed safety edge on a yard roller shutter and re-testing its closing forces.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Beverley?
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
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a door safety upgrade cost in Beverley?
Our guide price is £445 to £1,795 ex VAT per door for safety edges, photocells or a light curtain, depending on door size and devices. A new control panel or fall protection adds to it. We confirm the fixed price after a survey and force test in Beverley.
Do you upgrade doors from other installers across the East Riding of Yorkshire?
Yes. We upgrade safety devices on most makes of powered door across the East Riding of Yorkshire, whoever installed them, checking that new devices are compatible with the existing control panel and replacing the panel where needed.
Our door at our Beverley site has a bypassed safety edge. What should we do?
Stop using the door under power until the safety device is working, or use it on hold-to-run only if the risk assessment allows. We can replace the edge or fit alternative detection and re-test the door.
