Options that matter on site
- Photocells. If something breaks the beam, the door will not close.
- Fall protection. If a spring, cable or drive fails, the door is caught before it falls.
- Warning devices. Beacons, sounders and traffic lights to warn people of a moving door.
- Records. Written results and updated risk assessment for your files.
- Panel upgrades. Where the old panel cannot monitor devices, we replace it with one that can.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding anti-fall devices to heavy roller shutters identified in a workplace risk assessment review.
- 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.
Safety law for industrial doors in England
Industrial doors in Stourbridge 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
Sites in and around Stourbridge 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.

Your questions about door safety upgrades
Do our powered doors in Stourbridge 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.
How long does a safety upgrade take in Stourbridge?
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.
Will a safety upgrade at our Stourbridge premises include paperwork?
Yes. We record the devices fitted, the force test results and any changes to the control panel, and update the door's risk assessment, giving you written evidence that the door was checked and upgraded.
