Automatic door repairs Devon

Common questions

Do you cover all of Devon?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Devon, including Barnstaple, Exeter, Exmouth, Newton Abbot.

Can I use my automatic door by hand while it is broken?

Usually yes, if the door has a manual or off setting, but follow the maker's instructions. Some doors push open by hand when switched off, while others stay locked. Check you still have a usable escape route before trading with it out of action.

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.

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.
