Expert Automatic Door Repair in Margate
Business owners in Margate know that a broken shopfront door kills trade. We provide rapid, industrial-grade repairs. As independent specialists, we work on all major brands including Dorma, Record, Geze, and Assa Abloy.
Control Board Logic Repair
We diagnose faults in the Microprocessor Control Unit (PCB). Our Margate engineers can often reset factory parameters or update firmware rather than swapping expensive boards.
Laminated Glass Replacement
Smashed glass? We replace toughened or laminated safety glass for automatic doors in Margate, securing your site immediately.
Manual Breakout Testing
For sliding doors on escape routes, we test the 'Green Box' breakout. We ensure Margate staff can push the doors open manually in an emergency.
Kevlar Drive Belt Tensioning
A loose belt causes 'juddering'. We install reinforced Kevlar timing belts and tension them to factory Newton-meter specs, ensuring smooth acceleration for your Margate entrance.
Battery Backup (UPS) Tests
In a power cut, your door must work. We test NiMH battery packs to ensure your door performs its emergency open/close function, a key fire safety requirement in Margate.
