What should I know about safety edge and photocell repairs in County Tyrone?

The engineer tests the whole circuit, because a damaged cable or control box fault can look like a failed device.
Never tape over, bridge or bypass a safety device to make an electric roller door close.
A pressure-sensitive safety edge on the bottom rail stops or reverses the door when it touches something while closing.
Photocells either side of the opening stop the door closing while anything is breaking the beam between them.

Powered door safety

Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and CE marking, which is the marking that applies to machinery placed on the market in Northern Ireland.

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Part P does not apply in Northern Ireland, but electrical work must still meet BS 7671 and be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Which towns do you cover in County Tyrone?

We cover County Tyrone, including Omagh, Dungannon, Strabane and Cookstown. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in County Tyrone online.

Tell us what the door is doing using the form on this page, by phone or on WhatsApp. We confirm the visit price before anyone comes out, then confirm the date in writing.

Can I get a price without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type, or the visit price for a repair. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

How do I test my safety edge and photocells?

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your door. In general, the test checks that the door stops or reverses when the safety edge meets an obstruction while closing, and that the door won't close while the photocell beam is broken. Keep people and pets clear while testing, and repeat the test monthly.

Can I bypass the photocells to get the door shut?

No. Bypassing, bridging or taping over a safety device removes the protection that stops the door closing onto a person, pet or car. If the door won't close, switch it off at the isolator, keep the area clear and request a visit. Tell us if you're concerned about security when you get in touch.
