Options that matter on site
- Records. Written results and updated risk assessment for your files.
- Photocells. Beams across the opening that stop the door closing while broken.
- Force testing. We measure how hard the door closes and record the results at each test point.
- Safety edges. Pressure-sensitive or optical edges that stop and reverse the door on contact.
- Panel upgrades. Control panels with monitored safety inputs where older ones fall short.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a damaged or bypassed safety edge on a yard roller shutter and re-testing its closing forces.
- Fitting spring-break and cable-break devices to older sectional doors installed without any fall protection.
- Upgrading an old relay control panel so monitored safety edges and photocells can be connected to it.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Banstead 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.
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.
