Common questions

Do you cover all of Merseyside?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Merseyside, including Bebington, Birkenhead, Bootle, Huyton.

Can you repair any make of automatic door?

Many faults can be repaired across common makes, because sensors, belts and rollers are widely available. Some controllers and drives are specific to one maker, and older ones may be discontinued. We check parts first and tell you if the operator needs replacing.

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.

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.
