Servicing for High Speed Doors
High Speed Doors need regular servicing to stay safe, reliable and working as they should. At TWS Automation, we provide professional high speed door servicing for businesses across Durham and the wider North East, helping prevent breakdowns, improve safety and extend the life of your door system.
Why Regular Servicing Is Important
Many high speed door faults begin with small warning signs, such as slower opening speeds, unusual noises, inconsistent operation, or safety sensors failing to respond correctly. Regular servicing allows these issues to be identified and resolved before they develop into costly repairs or unexpected breakdowns.
What We Check During High Speed Door Servicing
Every service includes a full inspection of both the mechanical and electrical parts of the system to ensure everything is safe and operating correctly.
Door Curtain & Structure Checks
During high speed door servicing, we inspect the main door structure, including:
- Door curtain or panel condition
- Signs of tears, dents or deformation
- Side guides, tracks and covers
- Fixings, bolts and mountings
- Corrosion, oil leaks or visible damage
- Obstructions around the door opening
These checks help identify wear or damage before it affects daily operation.
Electrical & Control System Checks
We inspect the electrical and control elements of the high speed door, including:
- Power supply and isolator condition
- Control panels and labelling
- Push buttons and key switches
- Emergency stop buttons
- Warning lights, buzzers and beacons
- Control functions and user operation
This ensures the door can be operated safely, clearly and reliably by staff.
Safety Device Testing
Safety systems are tested carefully to make sure the door responds correctly, including:
- Safety edges and bottom safety strips
- Photoelectric sensors and light curtains
- Safety brake or fall-arrest system
- Obstacle detection response
- Emergency manual release
- Safety signage and protective covers
These checks help keep the high speed door safe and compliant during everyday use.
Motor, Movement & Performance Checks
Our engineers check the moving parts and performance of the door, including:
- Rollers, bearings and shafts
- Drive chains or belts
- Motor noise, vibration and temperature
- Gearbox and drive units
- Limit switches and stopping positions
- Opening speed and smooth full-cycle operation
This helps prevent breakdowns, improve reliability and reduce costly downtime.
Preventative Maintenance for Long Term Reliability
Regular preventative maintenance is one of the most effective ways to maximise the lifespan of your high speed doors and avoid costly repairs. Through routine servicing, our engineers can identify and rectify these problems before they lead to unexpected breakdowns, safety concerns, or operational downtime. Preventative maintenance not only improves reliability and performance but also helps ensure your high speed doors continue to operate safely and efficiently in demanding industrial and commercial environments.
