Routine Servicing Plans

Automatic Swing & Sliding Door Servicing & Preventative Maintenance
Automatic doors play a vital role in the day-to-day operation of your premises.
To keep them working safely and reliably, regular servicing is essential.
A planned maintenance approach helps prevent unexpected failures, reduces long-term costs, and ensures your systems remain compliant with current safety standards.
As automatic doors are classed as machinery, they must be maintained on an ongoing basis. Without routine care, performance can decline, leading to safety risks, downtime, and unnecessary repair expenses.

Why Regular Maintenance Matters

In busy environments, automatic doors are in constant use and naturally
experience more wear. Routine servicing helps to:

  • Reduce the likelihood of breakdowns and disruption
  • Extend the lifespan of your door system
  • Maintain safe and smooth operation for all users
  • Ensure compliance with relevant regulations

Modernisation & Retrofit Upgrades

Modernising your automatic doors is a smart, cost-effective alternative to full replacement. Instead of removing entire systems, we upgrade the critical internal components
bringing your doors up to today’s safety, performance, and compliance standards. By installing retrofit kits, we enhance your existing sliding or swing doors with
advanced control units, motors, sensors, and safety systems. This revitalises ageing installations while keeping disruption to an absolute minimum.

Smoother, quieter, and more efficient operation

Automatic Sliding Door Retrofit What’s Included

Our retrofit upgrades focus on the key components that control the performance, movement, and safety of your automatic sliding doors. By replacing and enhancing these core parts, we bring older systems up to modern standards—without the cost and disruption of a full replacement.

A standard retrofit typically includes:

Control System Upgrade

We replace outdated control boards with modern, intelligent control units.
These offer improved performance, updated features, and enhanced diagnostics for quicker fault finding and easier maintenance.

Drive Motor Replacement

Worn or inefficient motors are upgraded to energy-efficient, low-noise drive units—resulting in smoother, quieter, and more reliable operation.

Emergency Battery Backup

New or upgraded battery systems are installed to ensure safe operation in the event of a power failure.

Additional components upgraded where required:

Sensors & Safety Systems
Installation of fully compliant motion and presence sensors to meet EN16005 standards, ensuring maximum user safety.
