Gate Safety & Risks

Information

  • Risk Assessments must be carried out on all sites to ensure that the risk of injury or fatality is eliminated to users or members of the general public as a result of system design.

    These are to conform with BS-En12341-1:2003 for Gate & Barrier Automation.

    Regular preventative maintenance helps to prolong the system and conserve reliability.

    If the gate system is deemed to be unsafe, The gate shall be switch off power and issue a condemned letter as per Health & Safety Executive, GateSafe, and DHF advice and guidance; as the liability rests with the last person to service the gate system.

  • 13.0 Risk Assessment Completed?<br>Risk Assessment will be completed using DHF TS11:2018 Code of Practise as reference to all testes & checks carried out.

Applicable Machinery Directive Essential Health and Safety Requirements complied with? This section only needs to be completed where the Machinery Directive applies (new or extensively modified systems) an explanation of the EH&SRs can be found in Annex B TS11:2018.

    Maintaining for safety
    Component parts can wear and fail, sometimes catastrophically. Like most machinery, powered doors and gates need to be maintained to remain safe. Powered gates forming parts of workplaces or in common parts of residential complexes will be subject to health and safety law. Owners, occupiers, landlords and managing agents will have on-going responsibilities for the safety of all users and all those who may encounter the gate.

    There are a number of current standards which are relevant to powered gates, including:
    BS EN 13241-1 the Product Standard for powered doors and gates (and most relevant to the CPR)
    BS EN 12604 & BS EN 12605 on mechanical requirements and tests
    BS EN 12453 & BS EN 12445 on requirements and test for powered gates
    BS EN 12635 on installation and use
    BS EN 12978 on safety devices for power operated doors and gates
    BS EN 60335-2-103 on drives for household and similar gates
    BS EN 60335-2-95 on drives for residential vertically moving garage doors
