What we fit in Feltham
- Records. Written results and updated risk assessment for your files.
- Photocells. If something breaks the beam, the door will not close.
- Force testing. Closing forces measured against BS EN 12453 limits and recorded.
- Light curtains. Many beams from floor to head detect people and vehicles anywhere in the opening.
- Safety edges. Edges on the closing rail detect contact and send the door back up.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Feltham?
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
Sites in and around Feltham vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
