Automatic Swing & Sliding Door Servicing – Crisis UK, The Old Fire Station, Oxford
The purpose of our Planned Preventative Maintenance visit, is to –
- Check the functionality of the door system
- Check operationally that it performs to the needs of the business and its users
- Test the complete door system including safety devices
- Carry out a risk assessment to ensure any risks are eliminated or reduced to a safe level
- Compliance to current regulations and recommendations
Our service contract agreement is a fixed cost per visit and is based upon the amount and type of doors within your building. We always arrange with the customer the most convenient date to reduce the disputation as generally the automatic doors are on the main entrance to a building.
We have a specific schedule of works we carry out for each different door type which is detailed within our servicing. We have used our experience, the manufacturers service specifications and legislation compliance to adopt these procedures for every customer and service contract we offer.
Some of these include inspecting all mechanical components and cleaning sensors, etc. This means that the correct amount of time and engineers’ resource is allocated to ensure your doors are safe, reliable and reducing overall costs. Preventative maintenance servicing reduces the failure of equipment. This is backed up with the level of service our customers require as we understand that when a door fails it affects your business.
For automatic swing and sliding doors as an example the minimum for compliance to BSEN16005 and BS7036 2014 is once per year and a risk assessment checklist document issued. The manufacturers may specify when service parts are replaced due to the number of operations, so you may need to increase the amount of service visits and replacement of parts to ensure the safe and continued operation.
On completion a risk assessment checklist was carried out on each of the doors for the records of the school. The door systems were cleaned, demonstrated including a fire alarm opening test and left in working order.
