Why Servicing Is Essential

Automatic and manual doors are used thousands of times per day. Over time, components wear down, sensors fall out of alignment, and unnoticed faults can lead to breakdowns — or worse, injury and liability.

Regular servicing provides:

  • Early detection of issues before they escalate
  • Improved safety for staff, visitors, and the general public
  • Extended lifespan of entrance systems and components
  • Cost savings by reducing emergency call-outs and replacements
  • Proof of compliance for insurance and regulatory bodies

Routine servicing isn’t just good practice — it’s often a legal requirement under workplace safety and access legislation.

What’s Included in Our Servicing

Our engineers carry out full performance and safety checks on each visit, tailored to your system and building type. A typical servicing includes:

  • Full Operational Testing: We test all open/close cycles, speeds, and activation sensors to ensure the system works as designed in all usage scenarios.
  • Safety Sensor Checks: We inspect presence detection, barrier sensors, and finger protection systems — essential for preventing accidents.
  • Control System Diagnostics: We assess the control panel and automation components for errors, wear, or inconsistencies in behaviour.
  • Physical Hardware Inspection: Hinges, tracks, rollers, fixings, and all moving parts are checked for alignment and mechanical integrity.
  • Emergency Exit & Manual Override Testing: Where applicable, we confirm that fire exit routes and manual controls operate without fault.
  • Cleaning & Lubrication: We clean mechanical areas and apply suitable lubrication to reduce friction, noise, and premature wear.
  • Compliance Report: You’ll receive a written report detailing the checks performed, compliance status, and any recommended actions or upgrades.
