Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER), employers and building owners have a legal duty to ensure powered doors are safe and maintained in an efficient state.

The primary safety standard in the UK is BS EN 16005 (which replaced BS 7036). All new installations and professional repairs must comply with these guidelines to ensure user safety, particularly for vulnerable people.

An ADIA (Automatic Door Installation Association) or similar qualified technician will test the safety sensors, door speeds, and “break-out” functions for emergency escapes. They will also verify that the required safety signage is correctly displayed on the glass.

To remain compliant with UK safety standards, automatic doors must be serviced at least once every 6 to 12 months. High-traffic environments like supermarkets or hospitals usually require more frequent inspections, such as quarterly.

Labour rates in the UK generally range from £75 to £150 per hour, often with a minimum charge of one or two hours.

  • Minor adjustments: £150 – £300.
  • Replacement sensors: £250 – £600.
  • Motor/Operator replacement: £800 – £3,500+.
