Common questions

Do you cover all of Bristol and Avon?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Bristol and Avon, including Bristol.

Is it safe to keep using an automatic door that stops or reverses?

Not if it is touching people or ignoring someone in the doorway. Switch it off and keep it out of use until it has been checked. Intermittent faults are often in the sensors, which are also the door's main safety devices.

What if my automatic door was damaged in a break-in?

Call the 24/7 emergency line if the entrance cannot be secured, and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. Damaged glass, track or operators are then priced as a repair. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice, but only your insurer can decide on a claim.

Do automatic doors have to be serviced by law?

No single fixed legal interval applies, but the law expects them to be kept safe. In Great Britain, the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 require such equipment to be maintained in working order. Maker's instructions and BS EN 16005 guide what gets checked.
