Auto Sliding Door Refurbishment & Repair – Royston, Hertfordshire

The existing auto door had a major component failure and the parts were obsolete. When this situation arises then there are 2 options, either replace the operator complete or retrofit new internal mechanical and electrical components reusing the existing operator.

The main reason for opting for a retrofit kit, was that we had stock available and could complete the job the next day allowing the Farm Shop to operate fully. This also is a cheaper option for the customer as it does not include the track and cover as long as these existing components are in good serviceable order.

BH Doors retrofit kits are manufactured by one of the main worldwide suppliers Record. The STA20 includes the latest technologies, comply with current regulations backed up by our warranty and after sales service for peace of mind.

We designated a safe working area as shown by our yellow barriers, then removed the existing components to install the kit. Following this we installed new monitored sensors, set up and commissioned the automatic sliding door system. It is also important to clean down the doors and frame to return them to as new condition.

We also have a service contract agreement with Bury Farm Shop which includes 2 visits per year.

BS EN 16005 / BS7036-0 are the current standards applicable to auto door sets and also requires servicing as well as carrying out the necessary risk assessments at least once a year.

All that needs to be done is to ensure that they are maintained in accordance with the instructions set by the manufacturer of the automatic powered operator. Most automatic door manufacturers specify annual service intervals but that will depend upon the type of building and the level of traffic. Higher traffic automatic doors such as those used in hospitals, supermarket, airports and similar may require more frequent maintenance and servicing.

During each of our visits we –

• Carry out a schedule of works
• Minor repairs
• Site and door specific risk assessments
• Test and inspection

Hertfordshire is one of the areas we cover including Oxfordshire, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire, allowing us to provide the level of service our customers require should they also have a problem with their auto door.
