The Importance Of Automatic Door Servicing
The British Standard Institute (BSI) requires that your shutters be in good working order in the case of a fire.
Most thieves are skilled and will look for opportunities to break into your building if you have any faulty shutters, so make sure they’re secure!
When it comes to shutter door servicing, a little planning ahead of time will go a long way. Because the contractor will need to measure and create new components for the shutter in the event of an emergency, it’s crucial to stay organised.

How often should it be serviced?

This is a decision that will depend on how often your rollers are used and whether they need servicing or replacing. If you use them frequently, then it’s best to get professional help once every few months so as not to risk any damage caused by overuse. Doing this yourself could lead to serious problems such as breakages which would make the task much more difficult if there were no other option available!

The Importance – Automatic Doors
There’s no question that automatic doors on business premises improve the customer or employee experience. The elderly, parents with pushchairs and disabled individuals find it simpler to get in and out of facilities with automatically opening doors. With few hassles, anybody carrying items may freely enter or leave the facility. What’s not to like? An automatic door is a piece of equipment. If not maintained or serviced properly, this type of machinery can be deadly, especially if children or elders are present.
The majority of shops and industrial premises choose automatic sliding or swinging doors, while commercial enterprises and hotels prefer automatic revolving doors. To maintain a safe environment, it’s important to evaluate each type of automated door individually.
Checks to carry out
As you have an obligation of care, the owner or managers must ensure that their employees and consumers are safe whilst on your premises. Proper operation of automatic swinging, sliding, or revolving doors is also important. Automated sliding doors must have regular maintenance and automatic door servicing, to maintain high quality and can only be opened by the building’s caretaker in accordance with BS 7036.
Competencies in BS7036:0, BS EN16005, TS 011:2019 & TS 012:2019 allow us to assess, report and upgrade any unsafe asset within short timescales.
Servicing Requirements
We recommend that you have your doors serviced at least once every six months, in accordance with the Workplace (Health and Safety) Regulations 1992. This ensures they’re safe for workers and visitors alike; however, it’s important to discuss any individual circumstances before undergoing an increased maintenance cycle because our team can make tailored recommendations specific just for YOU!
