Automatic Door Repair Chelsea

Welcome to Automatic Door Repair UK, the leading specialist in **automatic door repair services for Chelsea**. In today's fast-paced commercial environment, a reliable, safe, and fully functional entrance is not just a convenience—it is a critical necessity. Whether you operate a busy retail store, a corporate headquarters, a healthcare facility, or a hospitality venue in Chelsea, a breakdown in your automatic door system can cause severe disruption, compromise security, and impact accessibility for your customers and staff.

Our team of highly skilled, **BS EN 16005 accredited engineers** is strategically positioned in and around Chelsea to provide rapid response times for all emergency repairs and scheduled maintenance. We specialise in the diagnosis, repair, and servicing of all major automatic door brands, including **Dorma, Record, Geze, Assa Abloy, and Tormax**. From sliding doors that fail to close to swing operators losing hydraulic pressure, we possess the deep technical expertise to resolve your issues quickly, safely, and cost-effectively.

The Value of Planned Maintenance in Chelsea

Reactive repair is often more costly than proactive care. We recommend our **Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM)** service for all businesses in Chelsea. Regular servicing (typically twice a year) allows us to clean the bottom guides, tighten drive belt tension, and lubricate the gearbox. This prevents the common 'grinding' failures we see in Chelsea and significantly extends the lifespan of your expensive automatic door assets.

Healthcare and Public Sector in Chelsea

Hospitals, GP surgeries, and care homes in Chelsea rely on automatic doors for accessibility. We provide priority response for these critical environments, ensuring that DDA compliant access is maintained at all times for vulnerable users.

Advanced Fault Finding & Electronic Repair

In Chelsea, we frequently encounter automatic doors that behave unpredictably due to sensor conflicts, power fluctuations, or component degradation. Our engineers are trained to troubleshoot complex **logic board failures** and input/output circuit issues. We rigorously test the **battery backup units** to ensure the door fails safe in the event of a mains power cut, and we verify the integrity of the **electric locking systems** (maglocks or strike releases).

For older installations in Chelsea, mechanical component fatigue is a common cause of failure. We inspect the bottom guide channels for accumulated debris and wear, which is a leading cause of motor burnout. By addressing these underlying mechanical issues during our visit, we extend the operational lifespan of your operator and prevent costly premature replacements.

Diagnosing Intermittent Issues

Intermittent faults are frustrating. Our engineers in Chelsea are skilled at tracing loose connections and worn wiring looms that cause sporadic failures. We inspect the entire cable management system to ensure reliability.

BS EN 16005 Safety Compliance: Your Legal Duty in Chelsea

Safety is our absolute top priority. All automatic doors in Chelsea must strictly adhere to the **BS EN 16005** safety standard (formerly BS 7036). Operating a non-compliant door puts your staff and visitors at risk of impact or crushing injuries and exposes your business to significant liability. During every service visit to Chelsea, our engineers conduct a mandatory safety assessment.

We test the **static closing force** to ensure it does not exceed 150N, preventing injury to vulnerable users. We verify that all **safety sensors** (both activation radars and presence detection beams) are functioning correctly and cover the entire door travel area. If your door in Chelsea lacks essential safety features like finger guards or monitored safety beams, we can retrofit modern safety devices to bring your system up to current legal standards.
