Emergency Automatic Swing Door Repairs – Department of Politics, University of Oxford
This particular call out was automatic swing door manufactured by Record on the main entrance of the Department of Politics.
We deployed our yellow safety barriers to designate a safe working area and investigated the reported fault.
It was apparent that the door hanging system was out of alignment causing the door not to close and secure.
Due to this also the automatic operator would not function correctly showing an error. This was a security issue to the building as it is linked to the access control system as only staff with access use this entrance, so needed to be repaired as soon as possible.
The top of the door was realigned and refixed, testing all operations including locking to demonstrate to the building manager.
This highlights where BH Doors are different, available to provide quick solutions, quotations and understand your business needs.
These are some of the values which get overlooked when customers are looking for a Service Contract Agreement based on the price and never take into account what they really need.
Our ethos is that we care about our customers, have pride in the work we carry out and be accountable at all times.
This is why we understand that anybody in a position of ensuring that a building functions correctly and works to a budget requires fixed costs, agreed call out response times, pre-planned service visits, qualified engineers and health and safety compliance.
