Automatic Door Repair Marlow

Welcome to Automatic Door Repair UK, the leading specialist in **automatic door repair services for Marlow**. 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 Marlow, 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 Marlow 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.

Types of Automatic Doors We Repair in Marlow

Our engineering expertise covers the full spectrum of automation technologies found in Marlow. We regularly service and repair:

• Automatic Sliding Doors: Single and bi-parting sliders are common in Marlow supermarkets and retail entrances. We fix worn carriage wheels, snapped drive belts, and misaligned bottom guide tracks.
• Automatic Swing Doors: Widely used in Marlow offices and for disabled access (DDA) toilets. We repair the arm linkages, spring tensioners, and hydraulic damping systems.
• Telescopic Doors: Ideal for narrow entrances in Marlow, these complex mechanisms require precise alignment of the multi-leaf drive belt system to function correctly.
• Revolving Doors: We service the speed control governors and collapsible wing mechanisms for high-prestige entrances.

Diagnosing Intermittent Issues

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

Reducing Downtime with Regular Servicing

Unexpected door failures can lead to loss of heat, security risks, and customer dissatisfaction. By scheduling regular maintenance visits in Marlow, we can identify worn components—such as floor guides or motor brushes—before they fail completely. A well-maintained door is safer, quieter, and uses less energy.

Detailed Technical Diagnostics & Motor Repair in Marlow

Modern automatic doors are sophisticated electro-mechanical systems driven by complex logic controllers. When we attend a breakdown in Marlow, we do not simply apply a quick patch; we perform a full **technical diagnostic audit**. This involves a granular inspection of the **brushless DC motor gearbox** for internal wear, testing the **drive belt tension** for signs of fatigue, and analysing the **control board error logs** for historical fault codes.

Common issues we encounter in Marlow include worn carriage wheels causing doors to jump off their top tracks, and faulty encoder signals leading to erratic, jerky movement. Our technicians utilise specialist handheld programming terminals to recalibrate opening speeds, hold-open times, and braking forces, ensuring your door operates smoothly, silently, and efficiently.

Healthcare and Public Sector in Marlow

Hospitals, GP surgeries, and care homes in Marlow 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.

BS EN 16005 Safety Compliance: Your Legal Duty in Marlow

Safety is our absolute top priority. All automatic doors in Marlow 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 Marlow, 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 Marlow 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.
