Options for door safety upgrades in Leamington Spa

Safety edges. Pressure-sensitive or optical edges that stop and reverse the door on contact.
Warning devices. Lights and sounders make sure people know when a door is about to move.
Photocells. Beams across the opening that stop the door closing while broken.
Panel upgrades. Where the old panel cannot monitor devices, we replace it with one that can.
Records. You receive a record of the devices fitted and the tests carried out.

What this work can involve

Replacing a damaged or bypassed safety edge on a yard roller shutter and re-testing its closing forces.
Fitting a full-height light curtain to an automatic sectional door on a busy pedestrian route.
Upgrading an old relay control panel so monitored safety edges and photocells can be connected to it.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Leamington Spa?

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.

Planning the work around your site

Sites in and around Leamington Spa 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.
