Options for door safety upgrades in Cleckheaton
- Light curtains. Many beams from floor to head detect people and vehicles anywhere in the opening.
- Fall protection. Spring-break, cable-break and anti-fall devices against suspension failure.
- Safety edges. Pressure-sensitive or optical edges that stop and reverse the door on contact.
- Panel upgrades. Where the old panel cannot monitor devices, we replace it with one that can.
- Records. Written results and updated risk assessment for your files.
What this work can involve
- Adding anti-fall devices to heavy roller shutters identified in a workplace risk assessment review.
- 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.
Powered door rules that apply in Cleckheaton
Cleckheaton is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
How the work is organised
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
