We adhere to all industry health and safety standards and continually update our training and certifications to reflect changes in legislation and best practices. You can trust that all work undertaken by BH Doors & Engineering Ltd is legally compliant, insured, and carried out by qualified professionals with attention to safety and reliability.
How often should commercial doors be serviced, especially those in high-traffic areas?
Our preventative maintenance contracts ensure fixed service costs, safety risk assessments, building compliance, and an asset register to track each door’s condition. For especially busy sites, internal basic inspections (weekly/monthly) complement the bi‑annual professional service. This combined approach ensures early detection of wear or misalignment and helps avoid unplanned downtime or costly emergency repairs.
What does a typical commercial door maintenance service include?
Local qualified engineers perform tests, carry out minor repairs, evaluate alignment, functionality and safety features, and supply risk assessments and method statements. Reduced rates apply under contract, and service includes compliance with relevant regulations (e.g. EN16005, BS7036, Document M, DDA, BS9999).
Can you provide a detailed maintenance checklist for our specific type of commercial doors?
It also includes risk assessment and method statement documentation. Contract customers receive the checklist in advance, ensuring they understand required work. The checklist supports preventive maintenance and forms part of compliance records and building audits.
What are the best practices for lubricating moving parts of a commercial door?
They avoid lubricating sensor lenses or electrical parts to maintain safety compliance. Regular scheduled servicing (e.g. every six months or as per contract) includes lubrication, while internal staff are encouraged to monitor for stiffness or noise and report issues promptly.
Do you offer scheduled maintenance contracts or service level agreements (SLAs)?
Customers benefit from predictable budgeting, priority scheduling, and long‑term reliability. Emergency services remain available with fixed call‑out fees. Contracts ensure consistent high‑quality service and peace of mind.
How often should safety features like sensors and emergency stops be tested?
Risk assessments include retesting safety mechanisms after any repair. Between visits, staff should report sensor or safety anomalies immediately. Following incidents or maintenance, BH Doors will re‑test upon request or during the next service.
What are the key indicators that suggest immediate professional maintenance is needed?
BH Doors & Engineering Ltd H Doors provides fast-response emergency repairs with a fixed call‑out fee, local engineers, spare parts in stock, and rapid turnaround. Customers can call for urgent assistance ahead of scheduled visits if any of these indicators emerge to avoid hazards or downtime.
How does proper maintenance contribute to the longevity and energy efficiency of commercial doors?
Documentation and asset tracking ensure maintenance is proactive. This approach supports longevity, performance consistency, and energy savings—especially crucial for automatic, aluminium, glass, and fire-rated doors operating in diverse environments across their service area.
What steps can our internal staff take to perform basic daily or weekly checks?
BH Doors & Engineering Ltd advises internal site staff to conduct basic checks between scheduled services: visually inspect doors for misalignment or damage; clear debris from tracks; test smooth operation; clean sensor lenses; verify seals; listen for unusual noises; check closing speed and full sealing; test manual overrides or emergency stops; and report irregularities promptly.
These actions help ensure optimal day‑to‑day performance and facilitate timely professional intervention during service visits or emergency repairs.
What specific cleaning products and techniques are recommended for different door materials (e.g., aluminium, glass, steel)?
BH Doors & Engineering Ltd recommends mild, non-abrasive, pH-neutral cleaners suitable for the material: diluted mild detergent and soft cloth for aluminium; glass cleaner and microfiber cloth for glass; pH-neutral cleaner for steel (no steel wool); gentle cleaners for painted surfaces.
Avoid aggressive acids or alkalis that may damage seals or finishes. These are applied during service visits or by facilities staff and maintained in a clean condition to support proper function and appearance.
How do environmental factors (e.g., temperature changes, humidity) impact door performance and maintenance needs?
Their services across regions Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Leicestershire, Medway, Norfolk, Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire, Suffolk, Warwickshire, Wiltshire. include tailored assessments to address local conditions, material suitability, and maintenance
frequency.
High‑humidity or dust‑prone sites may warrant more frequent servicing or specialized components. Risk assessments identify environmental risks and adaptive measures to maintain safety and performance.
What are the benefits of professional inspections versus in-house checks?
Our engineers carry spare parts, certified expertise, and can remedy hidden electrical or mechanical faults. Service contracts provide asset tracking and risk assessments. Combined, in‑house vigilance and expert servicing ensure optimum performance, safety, longevity, and compliance beyond what either alone can deliver.
Do you keep a record of past services and repairs for our doors?
Contract customers benefit from documentation of each maintenance action, building compliance records, and historical performance insights. These records aid audit readiness, trend analysis, and planning for component replacement.
What preventative measures can be taken to avoid common wear and tear issues?
