What to specify
- Panel upgrades. Where the old panel cannot monitor devices, we replace it with one that can.
- Safety edges. Edges on the closing rail detect contact and send the door back up.
- Photocells. If something breaks the beam, the door will not close.
- Records. Written results and updated risk assessment for your files.
- Warning devices. Lights and sounders make sure people know when a door is about to move.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing a damaged or bypassed safety edge on a yard roller shutter and re-testing its closing forces.
- Force-testing a run of loading bay doors and adjusting closing speeds where results exceed the limits.
- Adding anti-fall devices to heavy roller shutters identified in a workplace risk assessment review.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Egham 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Questions from businesses in Egham
How long does a safety upgrade take in Egham?
Most upgrades take a few hours per door, including re-testing. If a new control panel is needed, it may take longer. We plan work to keep doors out of use for as short a time as possible.
Do you upgrade doors from other installers across Surrey?
Yes. We upgrade safety devices on most makes of powered door across Surrey, whoever installed them, checking that new devices are compatible with the existing control panel and replacing the panel where needed.
Our door at our Egham 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.
