What we fit in Cookstown
- Force testing. We measure how hard the door closes and record the results at each test point.
- Safety edges. Edges on the closing rail detect contact and send the door back up.
- Fall protection. Spring-break, cable-break and anti-fall devices against suspension failure.
- Panel upgrades. Control panels with monitored safety inputs where older ones fall short.
- Photocells. If something breaks the beam, the door will not close.

- Carrying out safety upgrades on the powered doors of a newly leased unit before a tenant moves in.
- Adding warning beacons and photocells to a door that is being converted to automatic closing on a timer.
- 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 Cookstown?
In Northern Ireland, the business in control of the premises must keep doors and gates safe under the Workplace Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 and maintain work equipment under PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999, with HSENI as the regulator. The installer who supplies or motorises a door hands over the conformity documents and user instructions; CE marking remains the relevant mark for machinery here.
Planning the work around your site
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.

Frequently asked questions
Do our powered doors in Cookstown need safety upgrades?
It depends on how they are controlled and used. Doors that close automatically or on a single press typically need edges and photocells or light curtains. A survey and force test shows whether your doors meet current expectations.
Do you upgrade doors from other installers across County Tyrone?
Yes. We upgrade safety devices on most makes of powered door across County Tyrone, whoever installed them, checking that new devices are compatible with the existing control panel and replacing the panel where needed.
Our door at our Cookstown 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.
